Have you noticed that children seem to have a diminished respect for authority, nowadays? Have you seen that maybe even your own children seem to think they have a right to say how the house is run? Does it seem to you that America has lost her direction? This book may have the answer as to why? Futhermore, does a nation's national religion have a direct impact on the success of the local economy? This is the question that the first book of the series called "the Road to Salvation" asks its readers. "With God We Prosper, Without Him We Fail," which is the result of a 10 year study of American spirituality which asks the question, "does an abundance of or a lack of religion is in a culture have an effect on how successful the culture's economy?" This Book is by no means religious although it does use religion, along with every day current events to build on its arguments.
