Discover the magnitude of God's grace and how it can impact your life! Grace is one of the most phenomenal, yet least understood, gifts we receive from God. Grace does more than just allow you to be forgiven of your sin - it empowers you to overcome sin! To many, grace is just a doctrine, a spiritual concept. But as you will discover in listening to this audiobook, grace is so much more. Grace is unreasonable; it is so miraculous that we cannot make sense of it intellectually. Instead, we must ask God daily to help us walk in a childlike faith so we can simply receive his grace.

The United States' role in saving Europe's intellectual elite from the Nazis is often told as a tale of triumph, which in many ways it was. America welcomed Albert Einstein and Enrico Fermi, Hannah Arendt and Herbert Marcuse, Rudolf Carnap and Richard Courant, among hundreds of other physicists, philosophers, mathematicians, historians, chemists, and linguists who transformed the American academy. Yet for every scholar who survived and thrived, many, many more did not. In this rigorously researched book, Laurel Leff rescues from obscurity scholars who were deemed "not worth saving".

Clergymen rarely make good politicians. There is perhaps no better example of this than Father Charles Coughlin, a Depression-era priest-turned-demagogue who was seen as an angel by some and a devil by others. The same man who cruelly castigated the Jews also spoke eloquently on the needs and rights of the most downtrodden in society. The same orator who said, "Roosevelt or ruin", later cried, "Roosevelt and ruin." In the 1930s, his effective use of the radio revolutionized mass communications, and millions of people listened to his every word.
