An eerily prescient guide to the phantasmagoria of our political moment . . . Money, Lies, and God covers a lot of terrain, but it's Stewart's exploration of right-wing ideas that makes her book stand out . . . Books like hers function not as weapons but as maps, navigating a way around the edges of the abyss.

Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times Book Review

Money, Lies, and God paints not only a devastating picture of the state of American democracy but one that also contributes texture and context to understanding the current American political moment. American democracy isn't simply dying. It is, as Stewart observes, being murdered.

Casey Michel, The New Republic

Organized, clear, and compelling . . . journalism of the highest order . . . This is an important book and it couldn't appear at a more opportune time.

California Review of Books

Among the dozens of books that have attempted to identify the forces that Trump rode to power, this is one of the most closely reported and cogent.

Jessica T. Mathews, Foreign Affairs

Stewart displays her skills as a veteran investigative journalist as she exposes the root causes and key players of this antidemocratic movement . . . for many it will be a wake-up call; a call to recognize and respond to a movement that threatens to both undermine democracy and distort American Christianity.

Liberty Magazine

Stewart is a talented writer, weaving together narratives and research to help us understand how our politics and public expressions of faith became what we see today . . . After reading through the first 12 chapters, you'll be ready to join Stewart as she lays out some next steps in her conclusion. Because that's the work we need to do now. And this is a book we need now.
