Faithful Presence

Two-term governor of Tennessee Bill Haslam reveals how faith--too often divisive and contentious--can be a redemptive and unifying presence in the public square.

Faithful Presence calls for a different way. Drawing upon his years of public service, Haslam casts a remarkable vision for the redemptive role of faith in politics while examining some of the most complex issues of our time, including:

• partisanship in our divided era;
• the most essential character trait for a public servant;
• how we cannot escape "legislating morality";
• the answer to perpetual outrage; and
• how to think about the separation of church and state.
