<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this favorable look at the faith of the nation's vice president, Montgomery details Pence's spiritual journey and how it shapes his role in everyday life. Features exclusive interviews and insightful commentary from friends, family, and colleagues.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Several books have been published about Vice President Mike Pence, but none have touched upon what may be the most fascinating aspect of our nation's second in command: his deep faith. <br><i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> offers an intimate look at the man who calls himself "a Christian, a conservative, and a Republican, in that order." <br> Author Leslie Montgomery details Pence's spiritual journey and examines how the vice president's commitment to Christ has been a key component in his life as a husband, father, and public servant. Montgomery examines Pence's encounters with politicos and evangelistic leaders such as James Dobson and Charles Lake. She shows the role of Pence's faith in running for various offices, implementing faith-based initiatives, and responding to 9/11, the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the infamous Anthrax scare in Congress that directly affected him. <br><i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> is a powerful account of one of the most conservative vice presidents in American history, with exclusive interviews and insightful commentary from friends, family, and colleagues. It is a serious and moving reflection about one of America's most admired and respected politicians.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Christianity often receives a bad rap from politicians and the media. However, the basic principles of the faith, if practiced by those who lead our nation, could produce a gentler and kinder society. Christian principles demonstrated by the political leaders of our nation could go a long way in unifying a nation that has been blessed by God beyond measure and yet, divided by those who abuse our society with derogatory language and behavior. <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> demonstrates how such principles can be demonstrated in the life of one willing to set the example regardless of the cost. Leslie Montgomery has written an objective analysis of a life being lived by those principles, who is unwilling to compromise. Her motive seems obvious. Not only does she portray a life, but promotes a faith whose principles, if practiced, could change a nation. I have felt deeply honored to be among the interviewees for the book and even more blessed to have been Mike and Karen Pence's pastor for more than a decade.--Dr. Charles Lake "Executive Director, Growth Ministries"<br><br>Leslie Montgomery has written an intimate and fascinating portrait of our nation's vice president. Through dozens of interviews with those closest to him, Montgomery details the challenges and opportunities Mike and Karen Pence have faced and how their faith has guided them. <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> is an inspirational, unflinching, and compelling story for anyone who wants to know the truth about who Mike Pence really is as a Christian, husband, father, friend, and politician. For anyone interested in politics, faith, and the Trump-Pence partnership, this book is a must-read.--Ralph Reed "Founder, Faith & Freedom Coalition"<br><br>When Mike Pence walks into a room or steps onto a stage, you immediately sense that he is a man who walks with the Lord. You can see it through the compassion in his eyes and the confidence in his step. He knows who he is and he knows who guides him. There are few men I admire more than our current vice president. I would do anything Mike asked of me and I know he would do anything within his power for me. He is a man who is passionate about his family, his friends, his sacred charge as a public official, and his mission as a servant of God. Leslie Montgomery has intricately captured that passion and reveals the heart of our nation's vice president in such a manner that it leaves you encouraged, inspired, and challenged in your own journey of faith. You simply must read this book!--Doug Deason "President, Deason Capital Services"<br><br>Finally, a book that gets to the crux of the misrepresented "feud" between Vice President Pence and the LGBT community. Through interviews with key staff members, family, friends, and close associates, Leslie Montgomery has proven that from day one, Mike Pence has been a vice president for all Americans.--Gregory T. Angelo "Log Cabin Republicans"<br><br>I have great respect for my friend Vice President Mike Pence and the genuine values he demonstrates wherever he goes, whether speaking at a governmental briefing or surveying a hard-hit community after a natural disaster. He made a statement that touched my heart and shows his strength and conviction: "I am first a Christian, second a conservative, and third a Republican." <i>The Faith of Mike Pence </i>clearly shows how our vice president's deep devotion to God has permeated his life and motivated his dedication to public service. This book reveals the heart of Mike Pence.--Apostle Guillermo Maldonado "Founder, King Jesus International Ministry"<br><br>I hope that every American who is turned off by bare-knuckle, negative politics will read Leslie Montgomery's wonderful book about Vice President Pence's pure motives, solid values, and personal humility. This book is a "must read" for Christians who feel a call to seek public office or who currently serve in an elective capacity. For them, it is more than a profile of a man who holds the second highest office in the land. They will be encouraged and inspired by this book. It will serve as an invaluable roadmap for how they should maintain and reflect a strong Christian witness in the rough and tumble profession that they have chosen.--Ed Simcox "Former Indiana secretary of state"<br><br>I've known Mike Pence since he was relatively unknown in the community and I can say with certainty that he's the same man today as he was then: a man of faith, integrity, and fortitude. Reading <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> gave me tremendous insight into both Mike and Karen through the stories others shared, including those by the Pence family. If you're someone who is curious about how this simple couple from the Midwest developed their faith, values, and the leadership skills to guide our nation, this book is a tremendous read.--Howard Hubler "Indiana businessman"<br><br>Mike Pence wields enormous influence--perhaps more than any previous vice president. Montgomery has been able to peer into the world view of the man who is a heartbeat away from becoming president and use that vantage to draw a lucid and insightful portrait of the man, his faith, and his vision for America. A must-read for anyone interested in 21st century American politics.--David M. McIntosh "President, Club for Growth"<br><br>Over the years, it has been inspirational to watch Mike build a morally coherent life in a political environment full of corruptible temptations. Leslie's work provides affirmation that he is on the right track.--Ken Blackwell "Senior Fellow, Family Research Council"<br><br>The purpose of <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> is not to persuade the reader to agree with Pence's positions, political or religious. Rather it is to document one man's spiritual journey--from his mother's womb to the present day. To this end, it succeeds splendidly. Pence's harshest critics will understand the man better after reading the book as will his most ardent fan and the many others in between.--Cecil E. Bohanon "Professor, Ball State University"<br><br>There has never been a vice president like Mike Pence in the history of the United States, and I believe there will never be one like him. He is a man of true conviction, if there ever was one. Most men check their faith at the door, but not Mike. Whether he is at home, at a peace summit halfway across the world, or the Oval Office, his faith informs everything he does. America is blessed to have him as our vice president--and we are blessed to get a glimpse of this side of his extraordinary life through Leslie Montgomery's <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i>.--Jack Graham "Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church"<br><br>Vice President Mike Pence is a man worth writing about, reading about, and learning from. Leslie Montgomery has managed to pull back the curtain on the faith of the Pence family with inspirational true stories that will fortify and embolden every reader to stand strong in his or her faith with courage and joy. If you are a father, read <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> and be encouraged. If you are a husband, open the pages and see how to be a godly husband who loves his wife like Jesus loves us. And if you feel called to be involved in politics, this book will prepare you in a unique way to go forward with a steady gait.--Dr. Jay Strack "President, Student Leadership University"<br><br>A new book on how [Mike] Pence's evangelical faith shapes and guides the vice president is likely to both cheer those who appreciate his faith and worry those who don't.... Is Pence a modern-day Queen Esther, serving Trump for "such a time as this"? Did he jump at the chance to be--like a Joseph or a Daniel--a godly influence on Trump? Is he like John, the "beloved apostle?" Or maybe he's a "paintbrush in God's hand" to help Trump do the right thing, as conservative activist Ken Blackwell describes it.--Maureen Groppe "USA Today Washington Correspondent" (6/20/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Leslie Montgomery has written an intimate and revealing portrayal of our nation's vice president that has noticeably been absent in previous works about him. Through dozens of interviews with those who are often reluctant to speak, Montgomery details the challenges Mike and Karen Pence have gone through and how they've overcome these obstacles through their faith in God. <i>The Faith of Mike Pence</i> is an inspirational must-read for anyone who wants to know the truth about who Mike Pence is as a politician, husband, father, friend, and evangelical Christian. <br> --<i>Dr. Jay Strack</i> <br> President and founder, Youth Pastor Summit and Student Leadership University <br> Member, President's Spiritual Advisory Committee<br><br>Pence critics ought to read this account with an open mind. They might be surprised to learn about the human side of the vice president.--Russell Pulliam "Associate Editor, Indianapolis Star" (5/26/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>The 45th Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence, is more than the president's right hand man.
