Christianity and the American Commonwealth

By Charles B. Galloway, D.D., LL.D.

Originally published in 1898, "Christianity and the American Commonwealth" is one of the best summaries of the impact of Christianity on America.

Galloway leaves no historical fact unturned in his demonstration that America was founded as a Christian nation. Furthermore, he proves that without the Gospel and the application of all of God’s Word to all of life, civilizations turn despotic and crumble.

In a day when Christian leaders call for the abandonment of politics, Galloway’s book is a breath of fresh air. In many ways this book was prophetic. He saw what would happen if America rejected her Biblical foundations or if Christians retreated from their engagement in society.

Although written more than 100 years ago, Galloway’s arguments are persuasively modern and must be heeded by today’s church. There’s no doubt that the ACLU will be terrified when this book gets back into circulation!

GALLOWAY, Charles B., M. E. bishop, born in Mississippi about 1849. He was educated at the University of Mississippi, became an itinerant minister of the M. E. Church, and was a popular and impressive preacher, and a strong advocate of prohibitory liquor-legislation. During the yellow-fever epidemic of 1878 he remained at his post, and suffered a severe attack of the disease. In 1882 he was elected editor of the New Orleans " Christian Advocate," and in 1886 was ordained a bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, south.
