Dissatisfied with the election of President Trump, pastor Robb
Ryverse and his wife Vanessa wanted to do something to express their
beliefs and change the country. They decided that one way to make a
difference was to run for Congress. He ran against Steve Womack, a
powerful incumbent, and lost the election, but in the process learned
a great deal about politics and the relationship of politics to
religion.
I can’t say that I
agree with Robb’s politics or many of his religious beliefs, but
his motivation was good. If people want their views known and taken
seriously, more people will have to run for office. It’s tough, as
Robb points, out, but worth the effort. This is a personal story and
there are moving parts.
I suspect that many
people will disagree with both his politics and his religious
beliefs, but as a story, it’s worth reading.
I received this book
from Net Galley for this review.
