    Description

    Our Endangered Values-America's Moral Crisis by Jimmy Carter---Although a used book, it's in Like New, condition. (See Pictures)
    *****President Carter has written importantly about his spiritual life and faith. In
    Living Faith,
    he recounted the values and experiences that shaped his personal and political life. In his companion book
    Sources of Strength,
    he meditated on fifty-two of the favorite Bible lessons he has taught.
    ***In
    Our Endangered Values,
    Carter offers a personal consideration of "moral values" as they relate to the important issues of the day. He puts forward a passionate defense of separation of church and state, and a strong warning of where the country is heading as the lines between politics and rigid religious fundamentalism are blurred.
    ***Now, he describes his own involvement and  reactions  to some disturbing  societal trends that have taken place during the last few years. These changes involve both the religious and the political worlds as they have increasingly become intertwined and include some of the most crucial and controversial issues of the day---frequently encapsulated under "moral values."
    ***Many of these matters are under fierce debate. They include preemptive war, women's rights, terrorism, civil liberties, homosexuality, abortion, the death penalty, science and religion, environmental degradation, nuclear arsenals, America's global image, fundamentalism, and the melding of religion and politics.
    ***Sustained by his lifelong faith, Jimmy Carter assesses these issues in a forceful and unequivocal but balanced and courageous way.
