Description
The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism by Tim Alberta A thought-provoking exploration of the American evangelical movement, this book offers a profound and troubling portrait of a faith that has become increasingly polarized and misunderstood. Through the eyes of various evangelical figures, Alberta sheds light on the ways in which the movement has become entangled with partisan politics and nationalist fervor. The author, himself a practicing Christian and the son of an evangelical pastor, brings a unique perspective to the story, tracing the arc of the modern evangelical movement and its complex relationship with church teachings and traditions. As the book reveals, the movement's emphasis on patriotism and nationalism has led to a tragic erosion of its core values and a corruption of its promise. This book provides a clear-eyed and absorbing look at a complex and often fraught movement, one that challenges readers to think critically about the role of faith in American politics and society.
