Our Endangered Values
Book Description
Former President Jimmy Carter brings his deeply held faith and decades of public service experience to bear on the most pressing moral questions facing America today. In this thoughtful examination, Carter explores how spiritual values intersect with contemporary political and social issues, offering readers a framework for navigating complex ethical terrain.
Drawing from his personal spiritual journey, Carter addresses the delicate balance between religious conviction and democratic governance. He examines how faith can inform our approach to challenging topics including war, human rights, environmental stewardship, and social justice, while maintaining respect for diverse perspectives and constitutional principles.
The book serves as both a spiritual reflection and a civic call to action, encouraging readers to consider how their own values shape their engagement with society's most difficult questions. Carter demonstrates how authentic faith can provide clarity and courage when confronting issues that divide communities and nations.
Rather than offering simple answers, Carter invites readers into a deeper conversation about the role of moral conviction in public life. His approach combines personal testimony with broader philosophical reflection, creating space for readers to examine their own beliefs and their responsibility as citizens.
This work will resonate with those seeking to integrate their spiritual convictions with thoughtful civic engagement, offering wisdom for anyone wrestling with how faith and values translate into meaningful action in an increasingly complex world.
