If You Can Keep It: The Forgotten Promise of American Liberty by Eric Metaxas
Reviewed by Taylor Dawson, API Director of Institutional Advancement
“Eric Metaxas has done it again in his latest work, If You Can Keep It: The Forgotten Promise of American Liberty. This book serves as a much-needed reminder that freedom is not a guarantee. Metaxas notes, ‘What the founders gave us is like a flame…I’m afraid we are in serious danger of letting it go out in our generation. So it is genuinely urgent that we understand where we are and that we do all we can to make sure that we do not let this flame of ordered liberty given to us by our founders go out.’
“I, like Metaxas, was taken aback that I’d never heard the simple principle of the Golden Triangle of Freedom: freedom requires virtue, virtue requires faith, faith requires freedom. Without an understanding and acknowledgement of the foundation on which America was built, we will not be able to keep the freedoms that we’ve known for over 200 years.”
