From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen
Kingsbury comes an inspiring Baxter Family novel about a
beloved high school principal who starts a Bible Study to
improve the lives of his struggling students, only to become
the national focus of a controversial lawsuit.
Hamilton High Principal Wendell Quinn wants to see real
change in his community, so he starts a voluntary
after-school Bible Study and prayer program called Raise the
Bar. He knows he is risking his job by leading the program,
but before long, Raise the Bar meetings are standing room only.
A year later, violence and gang activity are sharply down,
test scores are up, and drug use and teen pregnancy have
plummeted. The program is clearly working—until one parent
files a lawsuit, claiming Wendell has violated his
daughter's rights.
But Principal Quinn knows God is on his side, and he refuses
to back down. As he prepares for court, he is deluged by a
storm of national attention and criticism. He wants just one
attorney on his side in the fight of his life—Luke Baxter.
A timely and nuanced exploration of religious freedom and
what it means to be a person of faith in today’s culture,
In This Moment will satisfy Kingsbury fans, old and new.
