'In God We Trust?' The separation of church and state is a widely contested topic in the American political arena. Whether for or against, debaters frequently base their arguments in the Constitution and the principles of the American founding. However, Americans' perception of the founding has narrowed greatly over the years, focusing on a handful of eminent statesmen. By exploring the work of nine founding fathers, including often overlooked figures like John Carroll and George Mason, The Founders on God and Government provides a more complete picture of America's origins. The contributors,...

Why are so many youth programs struggling to find depth in their students' Christian walks? Why are so many students weak in their faith and fleeing the church after graduation?

Sebelius" has been extraordinarily high, from as soon as the legislation was passed, through lower court rulings, the Supreme Court s grant of certiorari, and the decision itself, both for its substantive holdings and the purported behind-the-scene dynamics.

The discipline of engineering presumes certain foundational truths that are not reducible to mathematical formulas. It presupposes certain things about creativity, beauty, and abstraction in order to operate effectively. In short, engineering relies on philosophy. Conversely, philosophy can draw profound truths from principles derived from engineering experience. Engineering and the Ultimate crosses boundaries between a wide variety of disciplines to find truths both new and old that can be transformative to modern thought and practice.

Mark Hall takes the powerful story of the Woman at the Well and her encounter with Jesus to help readers understand that the "wells" we go to for life and sustenance, the "wells" of success, talent, control, favor, religion, etc., are keeping us from relying on Jesus and his abundant life, and we will never be truly satisfied until we realize that and go to Him for our needs.
