'Go and Do Likewise' by Governor Andy Beshear is being touted as "A compelling and insightful book that reclaims faith as a force for good in public life and rebukes those who use it to harm and discriminate."

In a post on social media, Beshear said the book will share how his faith has shaped his family and public life and calls for a "regrounding of faith in compassion and kindness, we can start to heal as a country."
