<p><b>This excellent book is so important. It clearly and powerfully explains what the parallels are between Germany's fall from grace and the beginning of our own fall. </b>- Eric Metaxas, author of <i>Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy</i></p><p>In <i>When A Nation Forgets God, </i>Erwin Lutzer studies seven similarities between Nazi Germany and America today - some of them chilling - and cautions us to respond accordingly. Engaging, well-researched, and easy to understand, Lutzer's writing is that of a realist, one alarmed but unafraid. Amidst describing the messes of our nation's government, economy, legal pitfalls, propaganda, and more, Lutzer points to the God who always has a plan.</p><p>At the beginning of the twentieth Century, Nazi Germany didn't look like a country on the brink of world-shaking terrors. It looked like America today. <i>When a Nation Forgets God</i> uses history to warn us of a future that none of us wants to see. It urges us to be ordinary heroes who speak up and take action.</p>

A book for everyone to read especially parents.

I am a homeschool Mum of 4 children, and didn't realize that this book would give me the inspiration to keep on keeping on, and leave the yellow school bus alone. This book uncovers the subtle lies the enemy has buried in the Western world that have made so many of us apathetic and looking just like the world. I know I get weary in having my children constantly being different, and my heart breaks as I see Christian parents letting large youth groups and programs be the spiritual discipleship of our children, instead of being the personal example and teaching them as it is our God given role. Another book a few years ago that changed our family was Tortured for Christ by Richard Wurmbrand. This book goes hand in hand with Wurmbrand's suffering for Christ, and the reminder that it is a part of every Christians life. I plan on purchasing this book for other friends that have made it their passion to politically debate anyone on the right, in the name of all the things the right has done to distort the gospel. Lutzer does an excellent job taking out political agendas from this book and challenging us as believers, first of all personally. If our own lives aren't on fire for the Lord and our walk with Him is off we will be completely ineffective. I was challenged by the research mentioned on successful Christians....success in terms of changing lives and being a difference, not in terms of health and wealth. 1) Know the power of prayer and fasting. 2)Can recite large portions of Scripture and hymns. 3)Count it an honor to suffer for Christ's sake 4) know that suffering is normal, it is one of God's gifts He gives the churches. If we as Christians alone, made the first one a goal, asking God to tranform our hearts, families would be changed, along with churches and communities. My heart is reignited, for these are the things I want to dilitgently work at and pass down to my girls. In our family if Christ and His word aren't imminent over everything else, we will just ...
