If you care about religious liberty, you will want to read this book

VIDE Press

Attacks on religious liberty have escalated across America, particularly over the past few months. Are you concerned about the future of the first amendment as it relates to our free expression of religion? Do you believe the church is in danger of losing the right to worship, pray, and even attend church?

A new book, The Right to Believe, offers thoughtful insight on recent attacks on religious liberty in America and gives solid direction for today’s Christian church. This compelling new book has rocketed to the top of Amazon.com’s “hot new releases!” It’s a must-read for anyone who wants to protect religious freedom. Today more than ever, we need to be on guard for those who want to take away our right to freely worship God. This book succinctly explains why and how.

The first amendment to the United States constitution begins, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …” Fast forward to today, almost 250 years after it was written, and religious freedom is one of the most pressing and controversial issues in American society. The first amendment protects all people equally—Christians, Jews, Muslims, agnostics, and even atheists. It preserves America’s diversity, where people of different faiths, values, and beliefs can peacefully live together without fear of retribution from the government. But some religious organizations, churches, and ministries feel subject to attack by anti-religious forces. They believe efforts to repress religious freedom are not just an attack on individual liberty and human dignity, but on the very foundation that has made America strong.

The Right to Believe offers a wide variety of thoughtful and insightful views on how and why America’s religious liberties are under attack today, and what actions can be taken to protect the First Amendment. Inside this compelling book, you’ll find a rich history of religious liberty in America and the reasons why it’s become a lightning-rod issue that’s being debated everywhere from the media to the halls of Congress. We hope you’ll learn more about these issues and feel better educated to confront them when they arise in your own life or the life of your community or church.

The Right to Believe answers questions:

  • Is there Biblical support for religious liberty?
  • How can we reclaim our religious liberties?
  • Why is freedom of religion the most important right?
  • How are our religious freedoms being eroded?
  • What are the consequences of erosions to our first amendment rights?
The contributors to this book come from a wide variety of backgrounds, both personally and professionally, and each offers a different viewpoint based on their lifetime of collective experiences. They all write for The Christian Post, as opinion writers for CP Voices. You can count on their solid research, compelling viewpoints, and strong passion for our right to worship God freely in America. If you value your precious right to religious liberty in America, you will want to read The Right to Believe.
