We Take Care of Our Own
We Take Care of Our Own traces the evolution of Bruce Springsteen’s beliefs, beginning with his New Jersey childhood and ending with his most recent works from Springsteen on Broadway to Letter to You. The author follows the singer’s life, examining his albums and a variety of influences (both musical and nonmusical), especially his Catholic upbringing and his family life, to show how he became an outspoken icon for working-class America—indeed for working-class life throughout the world. In this way, the author emphasizes the universality of Springsteen’s canon and depicts how a working-class sensibility can apply to anyone anywhere who believes in fairness and respect. In addition, the author places Springsteen in the historical context not only of literature (especially John Steinbeck) but also of the art world (specifically the work of Thomas Hart Benton and Edward Hopper). Among the themes explored in the book include community, a sense of place, America as the Promised Land, the myth of the West, and, ultimately, mortality.

Liberating the Bride
In the infamous pandemic of 2020 the world was forced into tyranny through lock-downs and unlawful mandates. Steve could read the writing on the wall and anticipated that the assault was really about eliminating the Church. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 that it was the Ekklesia (Church) that would be the offensive force against the working of hell, and therefore is one of the most essential and vital entities in America. This is the first pastor in the nation to take on the Goliath of tyranny and become the “tip of the spear” for the defense of the Church. Steve, his family and their Beloved Church was vilified and ravaged by the media and culture for his First Amendment stance. Eventually the outcome was that the illegal and discriminatory mandates were overturned by the Supreme Court of the United States and all of the Churches in America were victoriously Liberated!
