Author and popular radio host Michael Medved’s book “God’s Hand on America” is his second book that presents the idea that not just Americans, but people around the world have for centuries marveled at America’s bizarre fortune, and recognized it as a blessing. But his point is not that America is the lucky beneficiary of some cosmic lottery, but that the nation serves a purpose it should strive to live up to.

“We have not been chosen because we are so great, we are so great because we have been chosen, and chosen for special responsibility as much as for special blessing,” Medved said in an interview late last month.
