"James A. Garfield: Letting His Light Shine" from Christian Faith Publishing author John D. McArthur, Jr. is a heartfelt account of a man who knew his principles, his goals, and his passion as he entered politics and rose to national prominence but remained grounded and true to his responsibility for the nation.
MEADVILLE, Pa., May 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "James A. Garfield: Letting His Light Shine": a powerful biography of a man in position who knew his duty is more than the prestige of his seat. "James A. Garfield: Letting His Light Shine" is the creation of published author John D. McArthur, Jr., a minister with the independent Christian Church at churches in Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky, and Maryland. He is currently the preacher at a small church in Sterling, Virginia. History has long been a passion for him, and he specifically enjoys presidential biographies. Garfield has always intrigued him because of their religious connection. In John's spare time, he likes to visit historic sites and is actively involved in community theater.
McArthur, Jr. writes, "James A. Garfield is usually cast aside as a minor president from the late nineteenth century, one of the cold, bearded statues that fill parks across the country. However, Garfield stood out from his peers as a consummate politician who was able to live out his faith in a very corrupt political landscape. When his life was cut short by an assassin's bullet, the nation was more upset than when Lincoln died, and shortly after Garfield's death, almost every home in America had some kind of memorial to the twentieth president. Garfield's involvement with the Restoration Movement defined who he was, and long before he was widely known on the political stage, he was known and considered to be one of the leaders in an independent and fast-growing church group. This biography ties together Garfield's politics and religion to show how he really let his light shine in the world."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, John D. McArthur, Jr.'s new book is a fascinating life diary of a man whose hope was in full clarity for the future of his own country. This book is an important read for the modern world to remember and revive an iconic leader who is now a fading fragment of the past.
