He is one of a handful of scholars whose defense of theistic natural law stands against the cultural tide of a narcissistic antinomianism that eschews moral accountability and values personal convenience and unbridled freedom over the intrinsic good of human life from conception onward. Bruce Gordon, Associate Professor of History and Philosophy of Science, Houston Baptist University I've known Shannon Holzer for a long time, having had the privilege of having him as a graduate student. Shannon is very well-educated and informed about the central issues in religion, politics, and society, and he is passionate to speak to these issues from a Christian point of view. He also is hungry to train others how to think about these crucial issues. If we are honest, it becomes clear that there is almost nowhere we can go to get training in this area of life. Thus, what Dr. Holzer offers is a rare gift to the church. I am happy to recommend his ministry to you. J. P. Moreland, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University Shannon Holzer's work on religion and politics is an important contribution to what has become a contentious debate in American culture. Even if you find yourself disagreeing with Dr. Holzer, you will become a more informed citizen by listening and understanding the viewpoint that he ably defends. Francis J.
