Synopsis | Explore the religious ideals that drive the policies and politics of George W. bush as president and that privately shape him as a man. More than any other president in recent years, Bush’s presidency is “faith based.” His life demonstrates the power of faith to change a life, to build a family and political career, and to help shape the destiny of a nation. Discover how the 43rd president of the United States interjects his faith and brief in God into every detail of his life. From his devotional time alone each morning to his frequent incorporation of Scripture into his speeches, you will learn how the president relies upon his faith to direct his actions and goals. Find out how business failures, marriage difficulties, and a growing dependence on alcohol in the 1980s prompted Bush to become a man of faith. Look back at Bush’s presidential campaign, when the then-Texas governor welcomed leading ministers to pray for his future, telling them that he had been “called” to seek higher office. From the tragedy of September 11 to the present-day conflict in Iraq. President Bush has learned to use his faith to help him live his life—both in office and in private. This book will inspire others to do the same. —From dust jacket
