“They died to save their country and they only saved the world.” This line, the final one in G. K. Chesterton’s poem “The English Graves,” serves for Richard M. Gamble as an interpretive key to a peculiarly important moment in American history: the time of the First World War, when progressive Christian leaders in America transformed themselves from principled pacifists to crusading interventionists. The consequence of this momentous shift, says Gamble, was the triumph of the idea that America has been destined by divine Providence to bring salvation to the less enlightened nations of the world. In The War for Righteousness, Gamble reconstructs the inner world of the social gospel clergy, tracing the evolution of the clergy’s interventionist ideology from its roots in earlier efforts to promote a modern, activist Christianity. He shows how these clergy eventually came to see their task as world evangelization for the new creed of democracy and internationalism, and ultimately for the redemption of civilization itself through the agency of total war. World War I thus became a transcendent moment of fulfillment. In the eyes of the progressive clergy, the years from 1914 to 1918 presented an unprecedented opportunity to achieve their vision of a world transformed—the ancient dream of a universal and everlasting kingdom of peace, justice, and righteousness. American sacrifice was necessary not only to save the country, but to save the entire world. Vividly narrating how the progressive clergy played a surprising role in molding the public consensus in favor of total war, Gamble engages the broader question of religion’s role in shaping the modern American mind and the development, at the deepest levels, of the logic of messianic interventionism both at home and abroad. This timely book not only fills a significant gap in our collective memory of the Great War, it also helps demonstrate how and why that war heralded the advent of a different American self-understanding.

The war on the ground and in the air over Kuwait and Iraq was not the only Gulf War being fought in early 1990. George Bush and Saddam Hussein were also battling for public opinion and for the perception of legitimacy for their actions. In this effort, both men as well as their spokespersons appealed to the just war theory of their religious traditions. In this perceptive and wide-ranging book, Kenneth Vaux elucidates the great just war traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, evaluating the key events of the war in light of the religious rhetoric used by both sides. From the first stirrings of conflict to its uncertain aftermath, religious and ethical traditions played a major role in winning support not just for the U.S. and Iraqi peoples but of public opinion worldwide. Throughout Vaux demonstrates the wide gaps between religious rhetoric and the political-military action it has been called on to support. Ethics and the Gulf War is not a typical ethical treatise; Vaux understands ethical reflection to encompass history, philosophy, psychology, ecology, theology, and eschatology. His book is a valuable contribution to the understanding of the Gulf War, and it is fascinating for scholars and laypersons coming to this subject from almost any area of interest.

Since its composition in Washington's Willard Hotel in 1861, Julia Ward Howe's "Battle Hymn of the Republic" has been used to make America and its wars sacred. Few Americans reflect on its violent and redemptive imagery, drawn freely from prophetic passages of the Old and New Testaments, and fewer still think about the implications of that apocalyptic language for how Americans interpret who they are and what they owe the world. In A Fiery Gospel, Richard M. Gamble describes how this camp-meeting tune, paired with Howe's evocative lyrics, became one of the most effective instruments of religious nationalism. He takes the reader back to the song's origins during the Civil War, and reveals how those political and military circumstances launched the song's incredible career in American public life. Gamble deftly considers the idea behind the song—humming the tune, reading the music for us—all while reveling in the multiplicity of meanings of and uses to which Howe's lyrics have been put. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" has been versatile enough to match the needs of Civil Rights activists and conservative nationalists, war hawks and peaceniks, as well as Europeans and Americans. This varied career shows readers much about the shifting shape of American righteousness. Yet it is, argues Gamble, the creator of the song herself—her Abolitionist household, Unitarian theology, and Romantic and nationalist sensibilities—that is the true conductor of this most American of war songs. A Fiery Gospel depicts most vividly the surprising genealogy of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and its sure and certain position as a cultural piece in the uncertain amalgam that was and is American civil religion.

"Righteousness Exalts A Nation" is a call to battle against the forces of evil that threaten to destroy America's Christian heritage. Through this book, you will be challenged to fight this war by first equipping yourself with the armor and weapon of KNOWING God's love for you. This is the key to victory in your own personal life as well as America's Christian future. Chapter nine will challenge you to understand 2 Chronicles 7:14 from God's viewpoint. This is critical revelation for our nation to experience the healing of our land. America's destiny, as a nation, needs you to KNOW God's great love for you, please don't disappoint her. READ THE VISION IN THIS BOOK AND RUN WITH IT! (Habakkuk 2:2) David Vesely is first an American Patriot, who loves God and loves his country. He is also a minister/teacher of the gospel. David is director of Taking America Back-2014 an organization founded to restore God's righteousness in the major institutions of American public life. Other areas of ministry he has been involved in include: church planting; prison ministry; Christian school teaching and administration; pastoral armorbearer; and ministry of helps director. He is also a 2nd year graduate of Supernatural Ministries Training Institute (SMTI), a school specializing in ministry of helps and ministerial practicalities. There is a zeal and excitement within David to see America turn back to God. He is also equally passionate about the Church-the body of Christ "walking in" ALL the blessings of inheritance Jesus died for. A major key in turning America back to God is found in the church receiving and operating in their spiritual inheritance. One of David's favorite sayings is, "IF JESUS DIED TO GIVE IT TO ME, I WANT IT!" Can you say the same?

In The Righteous Mind, psychologist Jonathan Haidt answers some of the most compelling questions about human relationships: Why can it sometimes feel as though half the population is living in a different moral universe? Why do ideas such as 'fairness' and 'freedom' mean such different things to different people? Why is it so hard to see things from another viewpoint? Why do we come to blows over politics and religion? Jonathan Haidt reveals that we often find it hard to get along because our minds are hardwired to be moralistic, judgemental and self-righteous. He explores how morality evolved to enable us to form communities, and how moral values are not just about justice and equality - for some people authority, sanctity or loyalty matter more. Morality binds and blinds, but, using his own research, Haidt proves it is possible to liberate ourselves from the disputes that divide good people.

It was during the events of Year 2020 in America that God's Kingdom reveille sounded. The Spirit of the Lord was on the move to make war in righteousness. The nation's leaders thought they had overthrown the plan of God. It looked like their wicked plans were working. Little did they know that what was about to transpire would shake the entire world. "A resurgence of righteousness" arose in the land. People cried out to Almighty God and He honored His covenant with the nation. What the enemies of the nation meant for evil, God turned into America's good. As man's kingdom fell, God's Glorious Kingdom arose restoring justice and freedom to the land of the free and the home of the brave.
