    When crisis strikes, do our moral codes stand firm—or crumble beneath the weight of survival? In this riveting exploration, A.A. Castor reveals how the COVID-19 pandemic tested our deepest values, transforming bustling communities in the Philippines and beyond into crucibles of ethical tension.

Castor challenges you to reflect on what happens when the lines between right and wrong blur, urging readers to forge a future where ethical fortitude endures—even in the darkest moments.

    What does it mean to love our country? 
     
     
     
    Some Christians see loyalty to America as central to our faith and identity. Other Christians are skeptical that our nation warrants such devotion or attachment. But Richard Mouw encourages Christians to have a healthy sense of national peoplehood that promotes civic kinship and responsible citizenship. He navigates between Christian nationalism on one hand and cynicism about country on the other to avoid the perils of both idolatry and disengagement. 
     
     
     
    Mouw grapples with sticky questions such as how to honor national holidays in church and the place of protests in forging a more perfect union. Placing love of country in the context of Christian love of neighbor, he sees patriotism as an expression of our heavenly citizenship and a call to help our country be a place where all people can thrive in peace. 
     
     
     
    Mouw's winsome and wise reflections direct our patriotic affections toward the civic good of others within our churches and in our communities. This guide helps us travel together on a shared national journey toward liberty and justice for all.
