The colonial church was critical in training the founding generation on biblical principles for governing justly. When England governed unjustly over a long period of time with no intention of changing course, the leaders of the Continental Congress confronted their civil authority. After many years trying to reconcile, they saw no other option but to follow the biblical template for starting a new nation. They drafted the Declaration of Independence, and God blessed their effort.

For many generations, the church embraced its stewardship role to pass on these principles, but for the last fifty years, the modern church has turned away from this responsibility. Is citizenship optional for Christians? What is the compelling biblical argument for active Christian citizenship? This book lays out this citizenship role in strikingly clear terms backed by thousands of verses. All the common objections to political engagement are addressed, pointing the reader to the unescapable conclusion: The Duty Is Ours.

Industry Reviews

"Mark Burrell's book The Duty Is Ours . . . highlights the powerful biblical wisdom and truths the founders drew from to create our unique 'government from the consent of the governed' . . . I recommend this powerful resource."

-William J. Federer, nationally known speaker, best-selling author, American Minute radio host, and president of Amerisearch, Inc. Publishing

"I highly recommend the writings of Mark Burrell . . . There are few books that I can wholeheartedly endorse, and this is one of the few. Every pastor needs it, and I pray that it becomes a Bible study tool in many churches."

-Mark Beliles, president of American Transformation Company; pastor emeritus at Grace Covenant Church in Charlottesville, Virginia; and founder of Providence Foundation

"It's time to get back to our founding principles . . . Mark Burrell's book reminds us of our need to recommit to the legacy of liberty bequeathed to us Americans by the settlers and founders of America."

-Dr. Jerry Newcombe, author of The Book That Made America and co-author (with Peter Lillback) of George Washington's Sacred Fire
