Here to Buy  Our Sacred Honor | Former cabinet member under Reagan and now conservative author and speaker, William Bennett gives us "Our Sacred Honor" to convey the message of integrity and values for a valueless world.

 I believe this book is
must reading for every pastor who desires to have a more effective ministry. 
Reading the book has not caused me to jump on the "Seeker Service" band-wagon
- to get rid of my pulpit, employ dramas, or redefine my message. 
But it has sharpened my perspective of ministry and reinforced basic principles
in a refreshing context of ministry in the 21st Century.
