"He lampoons the cherished political idols that dominate our political landscape. . . . This historian turned pundit, with all the force of a prize fighter's left jab and right hook, leaves the left, right, and centre reeling on the ropes... I heartily recommend that you read this book. But you do so at your own peril. Its intensity as well as its pointed, provocative, and persuasive prose will force you to look at the Vanity Fair of politics from a pilgrim's perspective. It's just possible that you too will begin to yearn for a better city."
- Peter A. Lillback, President, The Providence Forum and Amazon #1 best-selling author of George Washington's Sacred Fire

"As Carl Trueman points out in his witty, provocative, and deeply well-informed way, the alliance of conservative Christianity with conservative (neo-liberal) politics is a circumstance of our own context in U.S. politics, neither historically nor logically necessary. Tie the faith too closely to right-wing politics and it's no wonder that younger Christians think they have to check out of orthodoxy when they move left of center politically. Regardless of one's own views, this book will delight, frustrate, and encourage healthy discussions that have been needed for a long time."
