"Where were you when freedom died?" That is the shocking question that opens "Indivisible: Restoring Faith, Family and Freedom Before It's Too Late." Our freedom is dying as, little by little, we give more and more control to the government. How is this happening? According to authors James Robison and Jay Richardson, it's our own misconception of the word's meaning that causes us to surrender our rights.

First, they tell us, we have to understand that freedom is not just an absence of restraint. True freedom comes in the right to do what we should do even if no one is watching. It is recognizing that with rights come responsibilities. We should exercise restraint with our free speech and demonstrate that we are intelligent enough to earn that right, even if we have a law guaranteeing that right. Their point is that our rights are similar to the privileges we had as children. If we didn't do what we should, even when our parents were not watching, we lost those privileges. That's why we're losing our rights.

They also discuss religious freedom. We have the right to worship God as our conscience dictates. The Constitution says nothing about not worshipping Him. To our founding fathers, that was unthinkable. It has been said that our strength is in our churches. We are stronger when we rely on God.

James Robison and Jay Richards have written an important book that everyone in America needs to read. They take difficult issues and give valid answers for solving our problems. That's more than Congress has done in the last thirty years. Listen to Jay W. Richards tell (not read) the truth about freedom. Do it before you vote in November.
