This study guide provides first a scriptural understanding of citizenship, and second, practical insights to help Christians faithfully participate as citizens of the United States. The focus is on God's revealed will for ordering our earthly lives and administering human affairs. Glimpses in the Old Testament combined with the full revelation of the New Testament provide important principles and instruction regarding freedom, government, and citizenship. From that scriptural vantage point, the study evaluates the founding principles of our own form of government, diagnoses what is happening today in our society, and identifies the ways that churches, pastors, families, and individual Christians can and should faithfully participate.

How does being a follower of Christ affect your relationship with government? What do Solomon, Joseph, Nehemiah, Gideon, and other biblical characters teach us about citizenship? Lon Fendall profiles contemporary people who illustrate what it means to be an active Christian citizen and he shares biblical models.
As Christians, we are called to be followers of Jesus in every area of our lives, including in our role as citizen (Matt. 28:16-20; Phil. 1:27). But, how exactly are we supposed to do that in an increasingly polarized and secular society? How can we engage in public life without jeopardizing the gospel? Here's how. In The Good Citizen, Josh Hershberger reviews Biblical principles and historical examples of Christian citizenship across continents and ages. Then, he applies those principles and examples to citizenship in the United States and sets out a practical, four-step plan for gospel-centered citizenship in a divided America. This book includes a Bible study guide for small group or classroom use. Most American Christians want to see the American republic strengthened and renewed for the next generation. But, that will not come through novel political strategies. Rather, it will come by prayer and by engaging government in God's way. Let's get to work.
The Christian Citizen in Modern America is a simple guide for how we live as citizens of two kingdoms: the kingdom of this world, and the Kingdom of heaven. Through a series of essays, Dr. Craig outlines the Christian response to a variety of issues and topics facing the Church in America today.
This interdisciplinary book probes the subject of extraterrestrial intelligent life, offering scientific and technological implications, discussing the philosophical and religious connotations and rebuffing pseudo-scientific assertions such as ‘rare earth’. The author discusses such philosophical questions as: What is intelligence? What is consciousness? Should we expect ETIs to be conscious beings? Also discussed is the viability of future astronautics which would enable closer human contact with ETI.
