As American Christians, we have a rich political inheritance and a strong desire to act. Yet our action is stunted by reactionary politics and a lack of understanding of the systems which govern us. It is time for a practical manual on American government written specifically for Christians. In The Forgotten Realm, Elizabeth Landis explains the often ignored structures of government that the average citizen interacts with every day. Starting with the city and working outward to the county, special districts, state, and nation, Landis inverts the way many Americans think about politics and their role as citizens. By looking at these structures and learning them well, American Christians will not only become more informed citizens but also more engaged citizens, able to bring the gospel of Christ into an often unreached space. By faithfully pursuing civics, American Christians can ensure that the "forgotten realm" does not stay forgotten for long.
