“You must be Kelly‚” the teller greeted me as I moseyed through tall glass doors. Liberty Bank was intimidating‚ and I wanted to spend the least amount of time inside as possible. The three tellers at their stations were staring at me as soon as I walked through that door. My blushed face and cautious demeanor gave it away that I was the new girl.

This past weekend a close friend of mine encouraged me to go see the documentary 9500 Liberty that was playing on Friday. Honestly I only went to be nice to my friend however as I sat and watched the documentary I quickly became very engaged. The film was about a county in Virginia which was trying to implement laws which negatively affected the steadily increasing Latino community in the area.

God of Liberty‚ written by Baylor University’s history professor Thomas S. Kidd‚ was overall a bit confusing to say the least. “It is a history of evangelical Protestantism in America‚ a study that links the religious beliefs of our Founders into a political alliance and‚ finally‚ a meditation on religion’s role in today’s increasingly secular American political scene.” This book is the reminder of how huge religion played a role in creating this country. This is important I believe because‚ while

This book has easily become one of the top books I have read as a Liberty University student since the principles that it includes are extremely applicable.
