  The Language of Climate Politics...

  In an illuminating analysis, Dr. Genevieve Guenther shows that the climate debate is not, in fact, neatly polarized, with Republicans obstructing climate action and Democrats advancing climate solutions. Partisans on the right and the left often repeat the same fossil-fuel talking points, and this repetition produces a centrist consensus upholding the status quo, even as global heating accelerates. 
   
   
   
  Weaving this analysis through fascinating critical histories of the terms that dominate the language of climate politics—the words we, alarmist, cost, growth, "India and China," innovation, and resilience—Dr. Guenther shows how this consensus is established. Fossil-fuel interests weaponize the discourses of science, economics, and activism, co-opting and twisting climate language to help greenwash their plans for ongoing extraction. But all too often climate scientists, economists, and even advocates will unwittingly echo the false and dangerous assumptions of their supposed political opponents. This apparent agreement between foes, filtered through the news media, not only influences our commonsense yet mistaken views about the climate crisis but also enables powerful decisionmakers to justify the corporate and policy actions that threaten us all. Revealing this dynamic, Guenther shows how to transform it.

  Uncover the ten lies that are destroying America and discover how to replace them with timeless, biblical truths so you can see real change in your life and your country. 
  It's time to take back what the devil has stolen and bring God back into our culture. 
  Phil Robertson, patriarch of A&E's Duck Dynasty and one of the most recognized voices of conservative Christianity in America, believes that little by little, generation by generation, America has allowed the lines of morality, decency, and virtue to be erased. Our values have disappeared as we began to believe lies that have only sown discord and division. But, most importantly, Phil also believes that things can change. 
  Written with captivating storytelling and unflinching honesty, The Theft of America's Soul shows us how to make America a God-honoring nation once more by dropping the ten central lies that rule our day and replacing them with timeless, biblical truths. 
  The Theft of America's Soul confronts cultural lies like:“God is dead.”“Truth is relative.”“God did not create life.”“Laws can be ignored or changed if they are inconvenient.”“Christians should shut their traps.” 
    
  This book will help you understand how to replace those lies with truths from Scripture like:The God of the Bible is not dead and he never will be.There is absolute truth and it comes from God.God is the Author of life and only he can nourish and sustain it.Law and order come from the Word of God.God's people represent his voice in the world 
    
  The Theft of America's Soul is a prophetic wake-up call for anyone who wants to see our nation thrive, challenging us to exchange lies for truths that will bring peace of mind, harmony, and prosperity back to our country. This book invites you to experience the life-giving, peace-filling, wholly-transforming love of God as you embrace the truths found in the Bible. 
    
  Praise for The Theft of America's Soul: 
  "The moral clarity in this book is so powerful and so refreshing I wish I could give it to everyone I know. Incidentally, the only way something could be this full of truth and wisdom is if its author is a prophet. That he is. Hear him." 
  --Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer 
    
  "In The Theft of America's Soul, the Duck Commander has set his sights on something higher, taking aim at the ten lies that have led our culture astray and put our faith, our families, and our freedom at risk. I am grateful for the direct, nonpolitically correct way my friend Phil Robertson lays out the truth. My prayer is that this book finds its way into the hands and hearts of many Americans." 
  --Tony Perkins, president of Family Research Council and president of Council for National Policy
