"Carter offers an unusual combination: a man of faith and a man of power...By adding his own voice to the discussion, Carter reminds us of a time when religion was tied to such virtues as humility and such practices as soul-searching...he is undoubtedly one of our finest human beings." -- Alan Wolfe, The Washington Post Book World, "...Carter's overarching decency, his care for the human condition and the health of planet Earth shines through." -- Kirkus, "Carter speaks eloquently of how his own faith has shaped his moral vision...makes resonant connections between religion and political activism..." -- Publishers Weekly, ..."Carter's overarching decency, his care for the human condition and the health of planet Earth shines through." -- "Kirkus", "...Carter's overarching decency, his care for the human condition and the health of planet Earth shines through." --Kirkus, "This is a book of reason and tolerance but also of indignation. The former President draws on his religious faith to comment wisely on a wide range of 'hot button' issues. Although Carter's tone is patient and explanatory, his views are bound to be newsworthy and should rekindle some old fires...an eloquent personal testament that deserves a wide readership, regardless of political affiliation. Highly recommended." -- "Library Journal", "This is a book of reason and tolerance but also of indignation.

Synopsis
The former president shares his personal views on moral values as they relate to key issues today, evaluating the controversial and increasing intersection between religious and political arenas., Jimmy Carter's personal consideration of 'moral values' as they relate to important issues of the day., President Carter has written importantly about his spiritual life and faith. In "Living Faith," a huge bestseller, he recounted the values and experiences that shaped his personal and political life. In his companion book "Sources of Strength," also a bestseller, he meditated on fifty-two of the favorite Bible lessons he has taught.In "Our Endangered Values," Carter offers a personal consideration of "moral values" as they relate to the important issues of the day. He puts forward a passionate defense of separation of church and state, and a strong warning of where the country is heading as the lines between politics and rigid religious fundamentalism are blurred.Now, he describes his own involvement and reactions to some disturbing societal trends that have taken place during the last few years. These changes involve both the religious and the political worlds as they have increasingly become intertwined, and include some of the most crucial and controversial issues of the day -- frequently encapsulated under "moral values." Many of these matters are under fierce debate. They include preemptive war, women's rights, terrorism, civil liberties, homosexuality, abortion, the death penalty, science and religion, environmental degradation, nuclear arsenals, America's global image, fundamentalism, and the melding of religion and politics.Sustained by his lifelong faith, Jimmy Carter assesses these issues in a forceful and unequivocal but balanced and courageous way. "Our Endangered Values" is a book that his millions of readers have eagerly awaited., Jimmy Carter has written importantly about his spiritual life and faith. Now he describes quite personally his own involvement and reactions to disturbing societal trends involving both the religious and political worlds as they become intertwined.
