DiIulio, who served a brief tenure as Bush's "Faith Czar," here writes a juicy and impassioned brief in support of religious involvement in the public sphere.

DiIulio undergirds his argument with an analysis of Constitutional and legal precedent and peppers the narrative with ample evidence of the good and necessary contributions to the civil realm by religious groups.
