Book Description

December 1, 2005
The battle for the future of American Christianity is being waged -- which side will win is anybody’s guess. This cutting-edge novel by first-time Boise, Idaho author Jodi Cowles revolves around the Minor Protection Act. It sounds innocent enough, yet if this campaign proves successful, Christianity as we know it will cease to exist in the United States. For no religion can stand when its children are taken out of the picture.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Ms. Cowles’ novel is a sobering reminder of how fragile religious liberty and parental rights are in America. If you think re-education camps could never exist in America, and children could never be snatched from their Christian parents, this book will be a wakeup call for you. The story she weaves shows how plausible that scenario is, and how few and short are the steps between here and there. This book will motivate you to pray for our land, to be on the alert, and to be ready to act with courage.
Bryan Fischer, Executive Director, Idaho Values Alliance

The Minor Protection Act is compelling enough to get your attention and hold it! Hopefully, this scenario will never happen here...but it could! If it does, this book will help you recognize and cope with this sort of oppression. Read and be challenged!
Dr. Mary Wilder, Professor, Western Seminary, Portland OR

From the Back Cover

Jack Stone has a problem. The world-famous lawyer has just consented to help the President of the United States get the Minor Protection Act passed. He realizes, to his horror, his mistake as he watches the consequences of his actions unfold. There might be a way to redeem himself, but can he find it?

President Anthony Farmer is behind it all, calmly directing the largest attempt at cultural hijacking in American history. The Minor Protection Act is his brainchild, and if it succeeds, it will remove children from homes where parents are "hateful, intolerant and bigoted" – in other words – too Christian. The supporters of the Minor Protection Act claim that it simply "holds parents accountable." What harm could there be in that? Yet if this campaign proves successful, Christianity as we know it will cease to exist in the United States with the death of a single generation – for no religion can stand when its children are taken out of the picture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking!, April 28, 2006
This review is from: The Minor Protection Act (Paperback)
This is a great story. Incredibly thought provoking. The characters became so real to me I felt I knew them. The ending is a surprise. It made me realize the power of religion and politics in our country and what could happen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fiction or Reality?, April 27, 2006
By 
This review is from: The Minor Protection Act (Paperback)
Readers will have to decide or themselves. Fiction that is so close to reality, that it is utterly frightening. Historical fiction written about our future... Read, watch and pray.

This review is from: The Minor Protection Act (Paperback)
I couldn't put this book down! It held my interest to the end. It was a fascinating story involving aspects of politics, freedom of religion, and the future of our country that truly challenged my thinking, and I would highly recommend it to others!
