| Summary: | Brent Walker is a living proof that moderation and reason in defense of the First Amendment are alive and well in America's public square. At a time when culture warriors often dominate the debate, Walker is an unfashionable centrist who has helped to make the Baptist Joint Committee (BJC) one of the most effective voices for religious liberty in Washington, D.C., Church-State Matters documents Walker's nearly two decades as legal counsel and, since 1999, executive director of the BJC. Baptists familiar with Walker's writings will welcome this accessible, highly readable collection of his essays, speeches, congressional testimony, and sermons. |
