The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism
by Tim Alberta
Description
In this incisive work of religious and political reporting, Tim Alberta examines the transformation of American evangelicalism from a spiritual movement into a powerful cultural and political force. Drawing on conversations with pastors, televangelists, revivalists, and ordinary churchgoers, he traces how nationalism, partisan conflict, scandal, and fear have reshaped churches and strained the faith’s public witness. Against the backdrop of Donald Trump’s presidency, the COVID-19 pandemic, and a rapidly secularizing nation, Alberta explores the widening divide within evangelical communities and the struggle to reconcile earthly power with the teachings of Jesus. The result is a searching portrait of a movement confronting lost influence, internal fracture, and urgent questions about its purpose.
