On Tuesday night, Dr. Kengor appeared in studio on FNC's Hannity and Colmes to discuss the new book. For those of you who are not familiar with the format of the program Sean Hannity is the conservative and Alan Colmes is the liberal. Both have the opportunity to question the guests. Hannity asked Dr. Kengor some fairly generic questions about the book and about Bush in general.
The show really got interesting when Colmes started to ask questions. Colmes did not really ask about the book. Rather, he zeroed in on the idea that a belief that God ordains what will happen and who will lead nations translates into an arrogance in Christians and in Bush in particular. Dr. Kengor then did a masterful job at clearly explaining how the opposite is actually true and that a belief in God's sovereignty really translates mostly into a calmness in a Christian's approach to life. It was a difficult question, and Dr. Kengor expertly represented the Christian viewpoint on the topic.
It is truly an honor to know Dr. Kengor and to have had the opportunity to learn from him in college. I encourage you all to purchase both the Reagan book and the Kengor's new book on George W. Bush.
