Charles StanleyA well-known pastor and author says the current economic crisis facing the United States should be a wake-up call for Americans to turn to Christ.

 

Dr. Charles Stanley is pastor of First Baptist Church of Atlanta, Georgia, and founder of In Touch Ministries. He says there is no question that America needs a spiritual awakening -- and he believes the ongoing economic woes could cause some in the country to turn to the God of the Bible.
 
"When God gets a hold of Americans' money -- whatever messes with our money gets people's attention, but we need enough heartache that drives us to God," Dr. Stanley contends.
 
Dr. Stanley has released a new book titled In Step with God: Understanding His Ways and Plans for Your Life.
