He is a best-selling author whose biographies, children’s books, and works of popular apologetics have been translated into 18 languages. Eric Metaxas was born in New York City in 1963. He grew up in Danbury, Connecticut, attending the public schools there, and graduated from Yale University.
If You Can Keep It: The Forgotten Promise of American Liberty
In 1787, when the Constitution was drafted, a woman asked Ben Franklin what the founders had given the American people. "A republic," he shot back, "if you can keep it." More than two centuries later, Metaxas examines what that means and how we are doing on that score.
If You Can Keep It is at once a thrilling review of America's uniqueness—including our role as a "nation of nations"—and a chilling reminder that America's greatness cannot continue unless we embrace our own crucial role in living out what the founders entrusted to us. Metaxas explains that America is not a nation bounded by ethnic identity or geography, but rather by a radical and unprecedented idea, based on liberty and freedom for all. He cautions us that it's nearly past time we reconnect to that idea, or we may lose the very foundation of what made us exceptional in the first place.

Fat Chance: Why Pigs Will Fly Before America has an Atheist President
A provocative glimpse at politics, faith, and science in America!
Most atheists don't know that there's never been an atheist president, that no members of Congress are atheists, and that in seven states it's illegal for atheists to run for office. Atheists are convinced that atheism is intellectual when it's the exact opposite. There is nothing more foolish than believing the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything. Ray addresses this fact, at the same time showing that there is credible scientific evidence for God, and exposing what atheists are doing to the once great country. This is a book that you can give to your partying and boozy neighbor, your likeable but unsaved Uncle Fred, or the Christian mom who is grieved that her beloved church-going son has turned atheist. America is having a revival of atheism, and is being swallowed by moral darkness. This book is a small but powerful light.
