For six months General Efrain Rios Montt's presidency was one of the most controversial in Guatemala's turbulent history. On the day of the coup that unexpectedly thrust him into power, Rios Montt announced to the watching world that it was God who "gives and takes away authority." With these words he began his term as Latin America´s first "born again" president.
Praised by Christian leaders in the United States and abroad for hsi courageous moral leadership, Rios Montt was also denounced as a religious fanatic and accused of a brutal anti-guerrilla campaign.
Then just as suddenly as he came to power, Rios Montt was ousted in a military coup that abruptly ended his controversial term. Who was this enigmatic general who simultaneously drew such bitter denunciation and warm admiration - who claimed that God had given him the presidency of his country?
Read the true story in... He Gives - He Takes Away. The Story of Efrain Rios Montt - general, political candidate, ambassador, school principal, national leader, and fervent Christian will amke fascinating reading.
