  The moderate American church is disappearing--and it's taking democracy with it. 
   
  Many people assume evangelicals are Republican, Democrats aren't religious, and moderate Christians no longer exist. But that wasn't always true. In the 1980s, evangelicals were just as likely sit beside a Democrat as a Republican at church. 
   
  What changed? 
   
  In this groundbreaking book, data scientist Ryan Burge reveals 
   
  ● how religious polarization reshaped America and caused many to leave church, 
  ● why faith became an identity in the culture wars, 
  ● the hidden truth that Americans are more moderate than the media suggests, 
  ● why polarization in our churches affects all aspects of social connection and community, and 
  ● a path forward for churches to bridge political divides. 
   
  This book reveals how political polarization transformed American Christianity over the past fifty years and why this divide impacts every aspect of society. Drawing on extensive data, Burge shows how churches that embraced conservative politics during the culture wars drove away millions of moderate and liberal Christians, hollowing out congregations that once bridged political divides. 
   
  Burge makes a compelling case that America needs churches now more than ever--not as political battlegrounds but as spaces where people of different backgrounds and beliefs can come together. Blending personal stories with rigorous, up-to-date research, The Vanishing Church offers hope that faith communities can help heal our divisions and restore the common ground essential for democracy to thrive.

  Transformation of Rome - From...

  This bundle traces one of the most pivotal shifts in world history—the evolution of Rome from a democratic republic to a sprawling autocratic empire, and ultimately to its dramatic collapse. The journey begins with the political structures of the early Republic, where consuls, senators, and assemblies worked in a delicate balance of power. Readers will discover how the ideals of civic duty and public service were gradually overshadowed by corruption, ambition, and the thirst for control, setting the stage for inevitable conflict. 
  The second part centers on the charismatic and controversial figure of Julius Caesar, whose rise exposed the Republic’s vulnerabilities. His military conquests, political maneuvering, and ultimate assassination marked the end of the old order. Following his death, the book charts the tumultuous path to empire—highlighting the power struggles between Octavian, Antony, and Cleopatra that ended in the birth of the Roman Empire under Augustus. Reforms, propaganda, and centralization of authority created a new Rome—one ruled by emperors, not elected officials. 
  In the final section, the focus broadens to the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. From the Pax Romana to the chaos of civil wars, barbarian invasions, and economic crises, readers will see how internal instability and external pressure chipped away at the once-unbreakable empire. This segment also explores Rome's lasting legacy in law, architecture, language, and governance. Transformation of Rome offers a sweeping, yet richly detailed narrative of power, collapse, and the enduring impact of one of history’s greatest civilizations.

  When you look back in history at royal romances, surprising as it may seem, few have happy ever after endings, and in many instances the idea of “Love and Marriage” being inextricably linked is not quite as common as you might at first think. In fairy stories handsome Kings and Princes regularly sweep fair maidens off their feet, transforming them into Princesses and Queens, and although a rarer occurrence, a Royal Princess can create a Prince out of the most unpromising of characters! 
   
  From King Arthur through to Prince Charles and Diana, Royal Romances - The British Monarchy gives you an enlightening insight into British Royal history.
