As much of the world looks at the United States with disdain and distrust, it is time for us to take a cold, hard look at what we have become. John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” We have strayed from our clear moral beginnings to become an egotistical culture that glorifies self. We try to set our own standards despite Thomas Paine’s warning that “man cannot make or invent or contrive principles. He can only discover them, and he ought to look through the discovery to the Author.”
As our society celebrates injustice against people who stand for their convictions, it’s hard to forget the words of John Adams who wrote, “justice is a great Christian as well as moral duty.” With the decline of virtue in so many areas of our culture – from twerking on stage to cheating scandals at universities to corporate theft by aggressive bankers – we should take heed of George Washington’s warning that “liberty, when it degenerates into licentiousness, begets confusion, and frequently ends in tyranny or some woeful catastrophe.”
Liberty’s Secrets exposes readers to the Founding Fathers as never before. They believed in God, Judeo-Christian values, and the freedom and necessity of religion in order to have a free and prosperous society. They believed in a free press and knew, as John Adams argued, “when a people is corrupted, the press may be made an engine to complete their ruin.” They believed in a limited government, strong education, and private property.
Liberty’s Secrets is like having a front row seat to the congresses and conventions where these leaders hashed out the profound issues of life and society. Charles has cataloged all of the Founding Fathers' writings and inLiberty’s Secrets provides an exposé of their profound yet glossed-over insights, delving into the subjects most important to maintaining a free society at a time when we most need to recover them. In so doing, Liberty’s Secretsequips readers to use the Founders' knowledge and understanding to neutralize the cultural myths currently undermining American liberty.
It is hard not to wonder whether catastrophe is upon us. If ever there was a time to grow up as a nation, now is the time. It is time to recover the morals and moorings of our Founders. It is time to rediscover Liberty’s secrets.

God, Israel and You is a fresh and insightful perspective on an oversaturated and over politicized subject. The book invites you to think honestly and courageously about Israel. Rather than coming at the issues with an us-versus-them mentality, God, Israel, and You reveals a God who is involved and gets His hands dirty by working through flawed people like you and me. God, Israel, and You embraces the paradoxes of the Bible: it is both straightforward and mysterious,accessible and infinite, supernatural and practical. God, Israel, and You shows you God like you may not have seen Him before. The Arab-Israeli conflict is an increasingly polarized topic and issues like abortion, and homosexuality, often drive wedges both between the church and the world. Why is there such division between the church and the world and even among believers themselves about these issues, especially Israel? Evangelical support for Israel among the younger generation is dropping at an alarming rate. The power of personal narrative elevates emotion over information and conclusions about Israel often lack historic and ideological context as well as the benefits of a cultivated biblical world view. The result is a shallow understanding of biblical justice and compassion void of wisdom. God, Israel, and You attempts to bridge the gap by providing a courageous and honest look at Jesus, His involvement throughout redemptive history, and how that interaction relates to the issues of today. It makes the case for Israel by being pro-God and highlights the redemptive purposes for the Arab world to a new generation through scripture, history, and morality. Believers are called to be ready with an answer for the faith that is within us. God, Israel, and You is about answers; ultimately it's about the knowledge of God, finding hope in this chaotic world, and recognizing the story where we find a faithful God who is intimately involved with the affairs of mankind. God, Israel and You recognizes that God is using both Jews and Arabs, and the next generation in a way that reflects the character of Jesus. When we understand this, we can better understand God, Israel, and ourselves.
