Revue de presse: A fascinating and well-argued book that adds a vital, missing component to understanding Churchill. As a lifelong admirer who as a boy met Churchill and who has read widely on his life, I was curious to know what Sandys and Henley would present as evidence. I was not only convinced but delighted at the realism and relevance of their portrayal of Churchill. He emerges as anything but ardently religious, but he was more personally aware of his destiny and more biblically literate and attuned to the Christian worldview and Christian civilization than many Christians today. --Os Guinness, author, social critic and founder of the Trinity Forum, Washington, DC

What a wonderfully enthusiastic book, written with the insights of a great-grandson of Winston Churchill who . . . grasps the spiritual dimensions of Churchill s life and the struggle against the pure evil of Nazi tyranny . . . And there is no doubt: it was Churchill as prime minister in 1940 who not only saved Britain from defeat but saved Christian civilization itself, as Jonathan and Wallace make so very clear. This is a book for Christians as well as for Churchill enthusiasts. --Christopher Catherwood FRHS, historian and Churchill Archives By-Fellow Emeritus, Churchill College, Cambridge

I cannot imagine anyone better suited to tell the story of God s work in the life and times of Churchill than Churchill s own flesh and blood. Jonathan Sandys brings an unparalleled vibrancy and perspective on the great man and his times. He and Wallace Henley have artfully woven together the best-known and most obscure pieces of history to present the beautiful and compelling tapestry that is God and Churchill. An absolute must-read. --Joanne King Herring, diplomat, author and President of the Marshall Plan Charities
