Review # 1 was written on 2009-01-23 00:00:00 Peter S. Hamilton This is the best book I have ever encountered concerning the religious beliefs/faiths of the most important Founding Fathers. Dr. Gsustad is a full professor of history at the University of California, and he does a wonderful job explaining how the enlightenment influenced the elites of the founding generation. Bravo!

Review # 2 was written on 2016-03-07 00:00:00 Ji Eun Lee I was converted from "educated" secularism in 2003. Every objection I had is addressed by this book for my background AND it's done by showing God in Jesus, and Jesus crucified. When I became a Christian, 3 other books: the New Testament, The Case for Christ, and Desiring God were primary in my conversion. The Case for Christ proves the Resurrection as a historical event. The New Testament self-authenticates itself as God's Word and shines Jesus Christ out to the reader. Desiring God presents that God is zealous for his glory, as he should be, and we humans can glorify him best by being satisfied totally by God and only by God. The Reason for God would be a perfect 4th book as making sense of the intellectual barriers to faith that have built up in the modern worldview.
