The role of Christians in the political process is hotly contested, but as citizens, Francis Beckwith argues, Christians have a rich heritage of sophisticated thought, as well as a genuine responsibility, to contribute to the shaping of public policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn particular, Beckwith addresses the contention that Christians, or indeed religious citizens of any faith, should set aside their beliefs before they enter the public square. What role should religious citizens take in a liberal democracy? What is the proper separation of church and state? What place should be made for natural rights and the moral law within a secular state?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cogent introduction to political thought surveys political science, politics and government while making the case for how statecraft may genuinely contribute to soulcraft. \u003cem\u003ePolitics for Christians\u003c\/em\u003e is part of The Christian Worldview Integration Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Christian Worldview Integration Series, edited by J.
