An important, unsettling book. Much has been written about the alarming presence of Christian nationalism and the unfortunate grip that it has on the American Church. This book helps us to see how, as cynical as it may sound, the foundation of much American evangelicalism has been in upholding its own power through political maneuvering, patriarchal views of gender, racially unjust structures, and so on. I wish a book like this didn't have to be written, but in light of the current state of things I am grateful that this one does exist. Those of us who are committed to the Kingdom of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ can't afford to ignore these discussions.
