Separate for a Reason
Re-Examining Separation of Church and State in America
What if the Christian hope for America has nothing to do with laws, politics, or freedom? What if the calling of Christians in America has nothing to do with fixing our culture?
Constitutional expert, Janet Ruth, points Christians back to the gospel by dismantling misconceptions about the relationship between church and state, religion and politics.
In Separate for a Reason: Re-Examining Separation of Church and State in America, you will:
- Learn the history of the writing of the 1st Amendment Religion Clauses
- Get a detailed overview of 1st Amendment law and important Supreme Court cases
- Get an in-depth look at the controversy over the words “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance
- See how Christians can be motivated by faulty arguments to protect their homes, comforts, and freedoms
- Discover how the gospel message can free you from fear for your nation and the burden of fixing a broken culture
Separate for a Reason provides an alternative to the culture war in a historical, legal, and biblical review of Separation of Church and State. It provides a fresh perspective on an old debate and helps Christians put their faith in God instead of moral laws and empty religious ceremonies.
Janet Ruth is a former Assistant United States Attorney who appeared many times before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. She taught criminal justice classes, including Constitutional Law, at the college level. In addition to her law degree, Ruth has a master’s degree in Biblical Studies. She has a passion for encouraging Christians to truly live what they say they believe.
Janet Ruth inspires me to think beyond my comfort of a Christian dominant country. Besides the legal logic of separation of church and state, Janet supports her opinion with scriptural citations. Separate for a Reason is logical, easy to read, and a breath of fresh air on a tired subject. I am blessed to be part of Janet’s launch team. I gifted her book for lenten reading to Christian family members.

The controversy surrounding the rulings of the Supreme Court on matters of religion centers on the meaning of the words contained in the First Amendment. What is a “law respecting an establishment of religion”? Does the amendment forbid the government from having anything to do with religion, or does it simply require the government to be impartial between religions? Does the Supreme Court even have the right to dictate to the states what laws they may pass and what actions they may take in matters of religion, since the First Amendment is directed only at Congress?
