When a Nation Forgets God: 7 Lessons We Must Learn from Nazi Germany by Erwin W. Lutzer

April 22nd, 2010

This book is a must read. Dr. Lutzer, in a very balanced way, points to the philosophical underpinnings of a nation (Germany) in which the people actively comitted great atrocities or passively looked away with violent apathy. While the author is careful to not overstate a correspondence with the US in 2010 neither does he shy away from connecting the dots between the thinking by many in our country today and that of Nazi Germany. Such thinking will certainly produce unsavory fruit. At only 141 pages and with the conversational style so typical of Dr. Lutzer this is an easy read – don’t miss it!
