About the Book
In this brief, readable time, author Thomas Bayuk recounts a lifetime of pulling away from and moving closer to God, before finally setting out to motivate others to do His will. An extraordinary timing, Shock & Awe in America views the values and precepts that our founding fathers implemented to create this nation. It also defines and identifies the source of many problems that are currently facing our country.
In the prologue, the author tackles America’s current ambivalence about the church’s role in society. This section contains provocative statements and stories that take aim at the current trend toward political correctness, with its strict separation of God from government. As a whole, however, the author focuses on his vacillating relationship with God. Bayuk, who has written two books about coping with his multiple sclerosis, turns his struggles into warm-hearted stories. He recalls in detail his long and happy relationship with his wife, his glory days of welling commercial real state, the ups and downs of owning a deli and a diner, and of having learned to live with his disease.
Throughout, the author recounts being torn between following his free will and following what he perceived as God’s instructions. He later describes miracles that have occurred since he has become more spiritually involved. Here again, the reader may see his helpful daughter, a reconciliation between parents and children, and the brother who raises some cash in a time of need, not as miracles but simply as blessings. Nevertheless, Bayuk writes convincingly about the satisfactions of a faith-based life.
Immerse yourself in this thought-provoking exposé and view the country in a different way with Bayuk’s Shock & Awe in America—definitely a handy nightstand that is hard to put down for those seeking spiritual affirmation.
