In his book Beckwith explores a framework through which Christians might engage deeply in the activity of forming political commitments. Below is my point by point review.1) Well Done: Beckwith simply has done his homework. It is evident throughout the book that he is knowledgeable and has thought through the Christian Worldview implications on politics. These is much to be learned from him and this book. Spend the time reading this and you will be extremely blessed by how your worldview will begin to change in regards to political life.2) Arguments Well Constructed: The reader will learn from the introduction what Beckwith's arguments are and how be plans to prove them. This is the mark of any good writer. He lays out chapter by chapter what he intends the reader to understand and how he challenges the Christian to think about government.3) Longer?: I rarely say this about many books but i wish this was longer; it does a great job but me personally; I want to know more. It is the perfect length or a weekend read and maybe that's what he intended it to be.

Worth Your TimeBy BluegrassIn today's economy; you need every little edge you can get. By reading Politics for Christians; you will be enlightened with ideas and concepts that will help even the most scrupulous reader. This text takes a common sense approach to a political economy and couples it with a Christian worldview.Worth the read.
