Throughout history the scriptures have inspired us to ingenuity, comforted us in trials, and given us a template to care well for one another. In 100 Bible Verses That Made America, you’ll be encouraged to learn afresh how the foundation of our country—and of your life—is grounded on the solid rock of Scripture.”

“Author and Pastor Emeritus of Houston’s First Baptist Church, Houston, Texas”

“As Christians one of our chief words is go. Abraham had to move, Moses was a vagabond, Jesus called the disciples to leave their nets, and the Great Commission is intended to send us out. Yet we yearn for a mortgage in a quiet neighborhood with good schools, pleading with God ‘No, not Africa.’ Instead of fear, let’s walk in faith. Trusting God’s leadership to uproot and replant or just plant us deeper and differently where we live. Shauna has practical principles to help us become difference makers wherever God has planted us. Let her lead you on His journey of joy for you.”

“As we live in a world desirous of scourging religion from life, Dr. Johnston shows that without difference-making believers in Jesus, many of the greatest elements of our world would be missing. Atheist, agnostic, or lifelong churchgoer—read this book and realize the importance and power of Christianity.”

“Peace is crucial yet elusive. Whether it is political, relational, or internal, we long for and try to grasp peace with all our might. Allow Jeremiah Johnston to take you on a journey, with both the mind of a scholar and the practicality of a missionary, to finding and sharing a deeper understanding of the shalom of God.”
