As America approaches her 250th birthday, she is also approaching a fork in the road. The choice before us is moral and boils down to two terms: liberty or social justice? We cannot have both. This book, written by a Swedish immigrant, lays out the moral case for returning America to the Christian, libertarian values that the Founding Fathers wrote into the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. These values guarantee liberty and opportunity, but they also require responsible citizenship in return. In understanding the latter, we can resurrect the former. By contrast, the failure to understand responsible citizenship and its critical role in defending liberty opens the door for America to irrevocably change character. Our country is already on the cusp of becoming a full-fledged egalitarian welfare state, defined not by liberty, but by the endless pursuit of social justice. As this book explains, there is a path back to freedom, one illuminated by faith, paved with practical, sensible policy reforms and traveled by people ready to exercise responsible citizenship.""Sven Larson's Faith and Freedom is a timely defense of the ideas that serve as the foundation for American liberty. It tackles modern threats like egalitarian social justice and the welfare state head on, pushing back against the view that diminishing liberty is a morally righteous pursuit.""--Andrew F. Quinlan, Co-founder and President, Center for Freedom and ProsperitySven R. Larson is a political economist, public-policy scholar, and the author of several books, including The Rise of Big Government: How Egalitarianism Conquered America (2018). His research covers economic policy, the welfare state, and the bridge between political values and practical policy. He regularly publishes in peer-reviewed journals and writes for conservative think tanks.

Frederick McSnoogle is haunted by a strange monster that lives in his pocket, plays in his mind, and fills him with worry and dread. He tells his mother he can't go to his first year in school. As Frederick wrestles with his monster, he learns to overcome his fears as he faces new challenges with prayer and Bible verses he's learned at home or in Sunday school. This book is not just for children; as parents, we too need to rely on the precious and powerful promises in God's word for our daily lives. ""This is a wonderful story helping children discover the importance of knowing God's Word, developing a relationship with Him through prayer, and trusting God above all when we are afraid. Children will enjoy the rhyming storyline and parents will appreciate a helpful tool to direct their children back to God's Word and the power of His love over our fears.""--Kristine Jung, Children's Ministry Director""Mrs. Proctor has created a children's book that is good for all ages! Even as an adult, I am Frederick! Fear has no age limit, yet the use of Bible verses calms the reader as with Frederick. I can see using this book in my seventh grade classroom to help students understand the concept of theme as well as giving them a subject to which they can readily relate.""--Susan Sieg, Middle School Language Arts Teacher, Seattle Christian SchoolAnnette Proctor has a bachelor's degree in art, and taught the subject to children from kindergarten through twelfth grade at three different Christian schools in two states for twenty-three years. She also has four children of her own. Frederick McSnoogle came as a result of the many years with students and parents dealing with all the challenges school can present and how marvelously our Lord God can provide wonderful answers, peace, and confidence to both children and parents.
