  • I enjoy his book that Josh Hershberger wrote. It is serious and comical. It's a very good book for people wanting to understand more about becoming a good gospel centered citizen in the united States. It also goes over different laws and examples with stories that go with being a gospel centered citizen. I'm not finished with the book yet, but I'm enjoying every bit of it!
