Christians first expressed these political truths under Caesars, kings, popes, and emperors. We need them in the age of presidents. Leviathan is rising again, and the first weapon we must recover is the longstanding Christian tradition of resisting governmental overreach.

Our bloated bureaucratic state would have been unrecognizable to the founders, and our acquiescence to its encroachments on liberty would have infuriated them. But here is the point; our Leviathan would not have surprised them. They were well acquainted with the tendency of governments to turn tyrannical: “Eternal vigilance is the price we pay for liberty.”

In Slaying Leviathan, historian Glenn S. Sunshine surveys some of the stories and key elements of Christian political thought from Augustine to the Declaration of Independence. Specifically, the audiobook introduces theories of limited government that were synthesized into a coherent political philosophy by John Locke. Locke, of course, influenced the American founders and was, like us, fighting against the spirit of Leviathan in his day. But his is only one of the many stories in this audiobook.

The book was on a Christian reading list given to us from our pastor. I loved this book, it is a great read

birth of Christianity in the government

The short version: government has no power from God to command what God forbids, or to forbid what He commands. Those which try regardless are tyrants to be resisted.

Interesting history

After reading this book I can’t help but want to do a deeper dive into the founding of America and build my knowledge base to better help people understand that the American ideals are worth fighting for.

A great reminder that American ideals are rooted in Christianity

The information inside is well documented and the narrative is enthralling. However, as another reviewer noted, this is more a background primer than what to do now in the face of Levithan.

More of a history lesson that practical guide.
