Conservatism, Republican politics, and traditional Christianity are thought by some to go together like baseball and apple pie. Yet, for a growing number of people, libertarian political thought provides an alternative to the traditional Christian right. That number includes the six young authors of this book who explore and expound the case that one can be both a Christian and a libertarian. Called to Freedom explores the major points of tension between the Christian faith and political liberty to demonstrate why the two can coexist in harmony. Through their own personal experiences, and from six different perspectives, the authors offer both thoughtful arguments and encouragement to anyone navigating the space between Christianity and libertarianism. It is in that space that the authors have found a home, one that prioritizes the kingship of Jesus Christ and the inherent dignity of the people created in his image. If you are a Christian exploring libertarian thought, or if you feel caught between your Christian beliefs and libertarian political instincts, this book is written for you.

If the so-called libertarian 'moment' is to last, it will be due in no small part to the efforts of sharp, principled thinkers like these, who engage not only their reason but also their faith in efforts to live together freely and virtuously.\"\" -Robert A. Sirico, President, Acton Institute \"\"This book is an exciting combination of personal intellectual journeys, public policy, and biblical exegesis all rolled into one. Anyone interested in the intersection (or separation) of church and state will enjoy it.\"\" -Roger Custer, Executive Director, America's Future Foundation\"\"As Called to Freedom makes clear, the only social/political arrangement that makes sense in a Christian context is one that allows each peaceful person to exercise his uniqueness. Whether it's the personal decision to accept Christ, or making the daily choices that define one's character, freedom is God's intent for each of us.\"\"-Lawrence W. Reed, President, Foundation for Economic Education\"\"This book is mature, calm, and penetrating, while turning the focus constantly toward the freedom and dignity of all.\"\" -Jeffrey Tucker, Director of Content, Foundation for Economic Education\"\"Called to Freedom makes a compelling case that Christians should support liberty rather than any political party. In today's difficult political environment, this book reminds us why we should not put our hope in politi | Called to Freedom by Elise Daniel, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
