Description: Competing Schemas within the American Liberal Democracy is a compelling book that dispels many of the common myths concerning Church and State, and shows that how one approaches the subject of religion and politics largely determines what types of conclusions one will draw.
Review Quotes: "I've known Shannon Holzer for a long time, having had the privilege of having him as a graduate student. Shannon is very well-educated and informed about the central issues in religion, politics, and society, and he is passionate to speak to these issues from a Christian point of view. He also is hungry to train others how to think about these crucial issues. If we are honest, it becomes clear that there is almost nowhere we can go to get training in this area of life. Thus, what Dr. Holzer offers is a rare gift to the church. I am happy to recommend his ministry to you." J. P. Moreland, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
