August 2022 – Newly Released Book by Joan Neumann (Author of Socrates, Jesus, and Freedom: A Philosophical Reflection, Joan Arnsteen Neumann).

Reclaim your constitutional rights through an understanding of God’s natural law. “Natural Law and the Constitution: The Law of All Laws,” is a groundbreaking book that demonstrates how natural law is the foundation of American’s freedom, justice, and liberty. “The United States is a natural rights Nation, and these natural rights have an origin in natural law. Our founding documents— the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights — are natural rights documents based upon natural law. Joan Neumann defines natural law and demonstrates how the Founders utilized natural law, and how we can use natural law today to reestablish our natural rights under the Constitution. “Natural Law and the Constitution: The Law of All Laws,” can be purchased on Amazon. Joan Neumann holds a Doctorate in Religious Studies, and a Master’s degree in Constitutional History.

It is with the utmost joy, that I announce the release of my first book, Socrates, Jesus and Freedom – A Philosophical Reflection (read intro). Follow along on my sojourn as I discuss the lives of Jesus and Socrates and through comparative analysis explain the parallels of their teaching techniques and philosophies on life.

I came under the spell of Socrates at an early age, following his example and awakening from the amanuensis that, according to Socrates, plagues us all. When I reflected upon the care of the soul and quickening of the spirit that are tenets of Socratic teaching, I became aware of the connections between the teachings of Socrates and Jesus. Socrates taught that the highest purpose of the human being was to care for one’s soul and to be a lover of wisdom and by doing so we give birth to intellectual children (ideas) which will become immortal. Jesus taught us to “walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor 5:7 The New Inductive Study Bible). Socrates’ love for his fellow citizens is evident in the care that he took to guide the ancient Athenians in open conversations that led to the truth. The treasure of our Lord’s love for us belongs to each of us as individuals, and belongs to the past, present, and future for all human beings. Follow me as I point to the many similarities between Socrates and Jesus Christ, including the fact that both men never wrote anything down but had a profound effect on their followers — their spiritual influence remains as powerful today.

Thank you,
Joan Arnsteen

Socrates, Jesus and Freedom is dedicated to the loving memory of my sister Kay, who passed on September 11, 2014, and the loving memory of my Mom, Sara, who passed on September 16, 2014. I love you both and am missing you. The completion of this book would not be possible without the assistance of James T. Neumann, heaven’s emissary, who came to me to repair my broken heart with his love.
