“As those who are charged to be the salt of the earth and the light
of the world, Christians have both a moral and spiritual imperative
to vote. Part of influencing the flavor, feeling, look, and tone of
our nation and indeed our world is accomplished through the
prayerful and thoughtful casting of ballots at our local voting
booths. “It is with this in mind that Leith Anderson and Galen
Carey's book, Faith in the Voting Booth, is such a timely work.
From the very practical matter of registering to vote to the
provision of a biblical framework through which to analyze some of
the hot button issues of our day, they offer a very helpful tool
for any Christian who desires to honor his/her dual citizenship at
the voting booth.”
*—CLAUDE ALEXANDER, Pastor of The Park Church, Charlotte, NC*
“Biblically informed voting among followers of Jesus is far too
rare today. Faith in the Voting Booth by Anderson and Carey
provides a valuable resource for anyone who wants to cast their
vote in a manner consistent with Scripture. Carefully consider its
contents and then prayerfully cast your vote.”
*—PAUL NYQUIST, Ph.D., President, Moody Bible Institute*
“The apostle Paul reminds us to ‘pray for kings and all those in
authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all
godliness and holiness.’ Leith Anderson and Galen Carey offer a
practical reminder that as believers, we have the privilege of
letting the timeless truths of Scripture guide our decisions as we
select those leaders and vote on the issues.”
*—JIM DALY, President, Focus on the Family*
“The most comprehensive, thoughtful, and researched book ever
written on living out our faith as we vote. This is NOT just some
simplistic ‘Voter’s Guide.’ This falls in the category of
Discipleship as a witness for Christ. The reading is compelling and
rich in both biblical and historical narratives that impact our
thinking both domestically and globally now and in the future. The
course of history could be changed.… Take the challenge!”
*—JO ANNE LYON, General Superintendent of The Wesleyan Church*
“The right book for a pivotal moment. Leith Anderson and Galen
Carey have done a great service with this thoughtful, articulate
guide. Combining religion and politics can be explosive, but
Anderson and Carey offer wisdom and leadership. They are an example
of how Christian faith should engage political action.”
*—RICHARD STEARNS, President, World Vision U.S., and author of The
Hole in Our Gospel and Unfinished*
“This book is food for the mind and the soul. Anyone interested in
faith, politics, and policy will benefit immensely from the
insights shared by Leith and Galen.”
*—TIM PAWLENTY, Governor of Minnesota (2003-11)*
