America is a superpower. However, we should be very concerned about the strength of the social and moral fabric of our nation. Speech is increasingly polarized. Views differing from our own are demonized. Commonality and connectivity are ignored. Anxiety, depression, and addictions are increasingly common, especially in younger generations.
Secularists work to mute the voice of the faith community supported by the mistaken notion that our First Amendment requires us to do so.
Returning to our nation's theological roots can be a powerful antidote. One needn't be Christian or Jewish to examine God's recurring messages in the Bible. Do not search for a phrase or two that conforms to your established views. The universality of the recurring messages can empower us to behave towards others in a genuine spirit of benevolence and understanding despite racial, ethnic, religious, or gender differences.
With over fifty selections from both Old and New Testaments, the author defines the themes that can provide important life lessons for your family. Dr. Mellow offers evidence from the fields of epigenetics and social genomics supporting connectivity and benevolence as providers of health benefits in addition to societal benefits.
Lastly he puts forth a plan defining the role of the faith community in dealing with many of society's challenges.
