Steven Waldman’s book Founding Faith, subtitled Providence, Politics, and the Birth of Religious Freedom in America, narrates the real story of how the USA’s Founders, forged a new approach to religious liberty, a revolutionary formula that promoted faith by leaving it alone. He vividly describes the religious development of Franklin, Adams, Washington, Jefferson and finally James Madison who crafted an integrated vision of how to prevent tyranny by encouraging religious vibrancy. The role of religion in America continues today, and the author argues that neither side in the culture war has accurately depicted the true origins of the First Amendment. Preowned
