This isn’t a book that you read thru as it’s scriptures that deal with different topics reflecting feelings or beliefs toward America. I have read many when I needed a scripture to deal with my emotions in the last year of this crazy political climate. I feel this more of a reference if you need a scripture for from the various topics.
