Book Description

July 24, 2007
Integrity: We love the concept, but when push comes to shove we would rather be on the winning team. Has political correctness made cowards out of people who have real moral character? Will the tidal wave of negative values, continue to destroy the moral fiber of America? Are we destined to be a nation of abused children, broken homes, abortions, and homosexuality?
No! That is not America! We are a people of great moral fiber who have been pushed aside by the disruptive voices of a minority made up of radical immoral people. This book, Igniting the Moral Courage of America: Six Ways You Can Inspire People To live With Integrity, provides examples of how ordinary people just like you and me can have a powerful impact on the morality of future generations. While most Christians wonder what they can do about the negative trends in our country, this book reminds us that God does not call the qualified; He qualifies the called. From the 92 year old widow with cancer whose story has inspired the lives of thousands, to the average football coach who changed the lives of hundreds of his players, to the reformed alcoholic who converted the meanest man in town, God is working!
This book documents the moral problems facing our country as it presents the long-term solutions for these destructive behaviors. Although our challenges appear complex, we are reminded while life’s problems are extremely complex the solutions are simple. The solutions are found when one person allows the power of God to work in his or her life!
Igniting the Moral Courage Of America starts in reverse. While most books begin with the foundation, we begin with the challenge and build though the solutions toward the powerful conclusion. The real foundation for life and morality is our God as He is revealed in the Bible. God’s absolute truth coupled with His amazing grace is the solid foundation that energizes good people. The real power is God working in you! You will be empowered by God to change your surroundings. While people who lack faith live “under the circumstances” of life, people of faith change the circumstances by God’s power.
This book is an exciting, 50,000-word ride into purposeful living. You will discover your own personal mission in life as you learn exactly how you can accomplish that mission. When your mission and God’s power come together, you will have a dynamic impact on people in our nation!

5.0 out of 5 stars Living with Integrity, November 4, 2008
This review is from: Igniting the Moral Courage of America: Six Ways You Can Inspire People to Live with Integrity (Paperback)
I suspect that most of us would agree with the assertion that integrity is one thing our world needs a LOT more of these days. Dean Kilmer, in his book Igniting the Moral Courage of America, gives us six simple steps to living with integrity.

Kilmer discusses the historical decline of moral integrity in America and how our own thinking has played a major role in allowing the decline to happen. He explains what exactly integrity is and steps we can take to live our own lives with integrity. He encourages us to take a in depth look at some of the issues eroding the family and how we can build integrity and fidelity back into the homes of America. The author also talks about fear and how we need to demonstrate courage in our quest to positively change to future. He stresses the need to reclaim our education system and build a foundation of truth in our lives. In the end the only way this can be done is through God's power in and through us!

Kilmer follows each chapter with a discussion guide which would make it a good choice for a Sunday school class or small group study. I appreciated his use of personal illustrations and found the book easy to read and follow. Dean Kilmer is employed as a pastor and the book feels like an engaging series of sermons.
