Book Description

"God Bless America." These words are fresh on the lips of many countrymen and international spectators alike in these post-9/11 days. But what do those words mean? What kind of America will God bless, and what do those blessings entail?

In his provocative but always informative way, Dr. Richard Land explains what is happening in our country right now, helping Christians interpret the times and respond to them. Does America enjoy God’s special favor? Were the attacks on 9/11 God’s judgment on this nation? Dr. Land’s call to renewal is an inspiring, hope-filled vision of what America could be and a practical challenge to every believer.

During his tenure as representative for the largest Protestant denomination in the country, Dr. Land has represented Southern Baptist and other Evangelicals' concerns in the halls of Congress, before U.S. Presidents, and in the media.

In 2005, Dr. Land was featured in Time Magazine as one of The Twenty-five Most Influential Evangelicals in America.

Dr. Land's book, The Divided States of America? What Liberals and Conservatives Get Wrong About Faith and Politics is published by Thomas Nelson and was re-released in January 2011 with a new preface.

The book has earned accolades from a diverse audience, with endorsements from Madeleine Albright, Peter Gomes, Michael Novak, and Peter Berger, among many others. Senator Joseph Lieberman penned the foreword to the book.
