"""Amy Hawk is a spiritual 'sister' whose love for Jesus and his church is clearly genuine. In The Judas Effect, she shares her personal spiritual journey and the anguish caused by the evangelical church's deeply troubling embrace of Donald Trump. Writing with warmth and insight, she presents a biblical looking glass that reveals our collective need to repent, to refocus on Jesus, and to choose his humility, compassion, and love."" --James Brauer, medical doctor ""As a deeply devoted follower of Jesus and serious student of the Bible, Amy Hawk boldly shines the light of Scripture on the path the evangelical church in America has taken in recent years. She passionately challenges the church she loves to take a hard, honest look at how they've strayed from God's way in creating an idol out of Donald Trump and calls the church to repentance. This book is a must-read for American evangelicals."" --Susan Wade, AP U.S. History and American Government teacher ""Amy Hawk is a wonderful voice crying out in the wilderness! The Judas Effect is the book the church needs NOW as many struggle to understand what has happened to the evangelical church in America since 2016. The Holy Spirit has given Amy Hawk a boldness to be a holy truth teller. The Judas Effect doesn't mince words about what's ailing the evangelical church, but it goes even further. It provides a pathway back to sanity and the divine purpose of the Lord's church--love and lost souls."" --Lisa Saunders, associate pastor, Emmanuel Church"
