Publisher Marketing Anything that presents itself as a force to hurt the souls of men is fair game for the pastor according to the author. An introduction by Dr. Douglas Kelly to the issues of Statism and Milton s own concern for the pastoral-prophetic voice on matters of public morality and bringing every thought captive to the Gospel make this a particularly relevant book in this season of thinking through politics and faith. The volume is complete with a bibliography on the matter of Christian voices in the public square and an index. It is profitable reading for the classroom in the office or study on the back porch or on a plane. Endorsements God bless Dr. Mike Milton for challenging the conventional wisdom that Christians need to mind their own business and stay out of the public square. He correctly diagnoses the root of our society s problems as spiritual and calls on the church to step up to the plate in an effort to save our culture. There is no inconsistency between spreading the Gospel and being engaged in the culture and in politics in a Christlike way. David Limbaugh NYT bestselling author syndicated columnist constitutional attorney contributor FoxNews Silent No More is a must read if we are to save our nation. The Church must take the lead in this effort. Michael Reagan national Radio Talk Show Host Author columnist son of U.S. President Ronald Reagan. Dr. Michael Milton s book is among other things a tribute to the martyrs of atheistic communism of which there were countless millions. Christians in America today face their own unique challenges. The threats to religious freedom are not as deadly as what Christians endured under communism but they are serious and they seem to get worse year by year--and they often stem from the same statist impulse. We must above all not remain silent. It is indeed true that all it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

In a culture where biblical standards are routinely being ignored or marginalized God s voice needs to be heard loud and clear however unwelcome it may be. Old Testament prophets provide a powerful paradigm of this and while biblical prophets have no like-for-like successors today Christian pastors have a similar responsibility to reprove rebuke and exhort directly challenging what seems to be the relentless drive towards framing a totally secular society. Michael Milton s book is an urgent relevant and powerful wake-up call. Every pastor should read it--and encourage his church members to do so.
