The Christian Science Monitor will publish a very nice review of my book in tomorrow’s edition. I appreciate it because the reviewer says something I have been trying to say:

Shortly before the recent election, David Kuo’s book captured the headlines along with other startling exposés relating to the Republican party and evangelical Christianity….

Yet this poignant, compelling memoir has bigger themes. Tempting Faith: an Inside Story of Political Seduction shows how readily someone with the best intentions and noble purposes can be caught up in the heady world of Washington politics – to the detriment of family life and the warping of deeply held convictions. Most significantly to the author, it sends an urgent warning to fellow Christians of the dangers of fusing religion with politics.

All I can say is, “YES!”
