Description
In this groundbreaking book, now available in softcover, acclaimed researcher and author George Barna identifies, describes, and analyzes seven major "faith tribes" in America--documenting who they are, what they believe, how they vote, and what they are passionate about. Barna provides helpful insight into how these groups influence our economy, politics, and values--and what their potential is to change America. Through his in-depth study of all seven tribes, Barna has identified potential strategies that faith tribes--if they choose to--could employ to facilitate healing and restoration in American culture, and cultures across the world.

Mr. Barna is obviously a very thoughtful man. His observations helped me better understand the different faith tribes in the United States. He did not always clearly distinguish between his opinion and the facts though. The raw data from survey results in the back of the book are great. I learned
His premise of identifying shared values from all faith tribes on which we can agree to build a solid foundation for American society was the best part of the book. It should be required reading for all those considering a career in politics.
I originally checked this book out from the library, but found it so full of wonderful information, that I purchased it to keep as reference material.
