Candidate Highlights Faith at Open Meeting in Montgomery County
Dresden, TN – Congressional candidate Roy Herron will talk with citizens about the importance of faith and public service this week in Clarksville as a part of his God and Politics book tour.
Herron will host a public gathering at Austin Peay on September 29th, 2010 at 1:30pm. He will give away free copies of his book entitled God and Politics: How Can a Christian Be in Politics?
In the book, Herron shares how Biblical values have shaped America and tells why and how people of faith should help lead this country.
Herron has served as a minister, taught ministerial students and still teaches Sunday school. As a part-time citizen legislator, Herron wrote Tennessee’s laws that protect both Bible study and prayer in public schools. Herron is pro-life and for traditional marriage.
In its third printing since 2005, God and Politics has nine chapters including “Doing Justice,” “Protecting Life,” “Defending Freedom” and “Beyond Partisanship.” The new edition contains photographs of Herron, his wife Nancy and their three sons.
Herron, a Christian author, has written three books, Sunday school and devotional literature, as well as articles of biblical scholarship.
As part of his campaign to represent the 8th District in the U.S. Congress, Herron recently sent his book to thousands of households across West and Middle Tennessee.
