À propos de cet audio
How did a libertine who lacks even the most basic knowledge of the Christian faith win 81 percent of the white evangelical vote in 2016? And why have white evangelicals become a presidential reprobate's staunchest supporters? These are among the questions acclaimed historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez asks in Jesus and John Wayne, which explains how white evangelicals have brought us to our fractured political moment.
Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping account of the last 75 years of white evangelicalism, showing how American evangelicals have worked for decades to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism. Evangelical popular culture is teeming with muscular heroes - mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of "Christian America." Chief among these evangelical legends is John Wayne, an icon of a lost time when men were uncowed by political correctness, unafraid to tell it like it was, and did what needed to be done.
A much-needed reexamination, Jesus and John Wayne explains why evangelicals have rallied behind the least-Christian president in American history and how they have transformed their faith in the process, with enduring consequences for all of us.

Biblical womanhood - the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers - pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It was born in a series of clearly definable historical moments.

Picking up where Faith After Doubt leaves off, Do I Stay Christian? is not McLaren's attempt to persuade Christians to dig in their heels or run for the exit. Instead, he combines his own experience with that of thousands of people who have confided in him over the years to help readers make a responsible, honest, ethical decision about their religious identity.

Women were there. For centuries, discussions of early Christianity have focused on male leaders in the church. But there is ample evidence right in the New Testament that women were actively involved in ministry, at the frontier of the gospel mission, and as respected leaders. Nijay Gupta calls us to bring these women out of the shadows by shining light on their many inspiring contributions to the planting, growth, and health of the first Christian churches.

What if the goal of raising a Christian girl was about more than keeping her virginity intact? What if it was about raising a strong, independent young woman who knows who she is, uses her voice, and confidently steps into the life God has for her? From the authors of The Great Sex Rescue comes this evidence-based book grounded on surveys of over 28,000 women to offer moms a fresh, freeing, and biblically grounded message of sexuality and self-worth for their daughters that is less about the don'ts and more about the dos.

The hypocrisy, the politics, the gargantuan building budgets, the scandals - church culture seemed so far removed from Jesus. Yet despite her cynicism and misgivings, something kept drawing her back. And so she set out on a journey to understand the Church and to find her place in it.

In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear.

Growing up in a deeply evangelical family in the Midwest in the ‘80s and ‘90s, Sarah McCammon was strictly taught to fear God, obey him, and not question the faith. Persistently worried that her gay grandfather would go to hell unless she could reach him, or that her Muslim friend would need to be converted, and that she, too, would go to hell if she did not believe fervently enough, McCammon was a rule-follower. But through it all, she was plagued by fears and deep questions as the belief system she'd been carefully taught clashed with her expanding understanding of the outside world.

Rachel Held Evans is widely recognized for her theologically astute, profoundly honest, and beautifully personal books, which have guided, instructed, edified, and shaped Christians as they seek to live out a just and loving faith. At the time of her tragic death in 2019, Rachel was working on a new book about wholeheartedness. With the help of her close friend and author Jeff Chu, that work-in-progress has been woven together with some of her other unpublished writings into a rich collection of essays.

What is the way forward for the church? Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches―from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches. Respected author and theologian Scot McKnight and former Willow Creek member Laura Barringer wrote this book to paint a pathway forward for the church.

For too long the Religious Right has masqueraded as a social movement preoccupied with a number of cultural issues, such as abortion and same-sex marriage. In her deeply reported investigation, Katherine Stewart reveals a disturbing truth: this is a political movement that seeks to gain power and to impose its vision on all of society. America’s religious nationalists aren’t just fighting a culture war, they are waging a political war on the norms and institutions of American democracy.

When Dan Kimball first sat down to meet with a student who was disillusioned by Christianity, he wasn't ready for what he was about to hear. The student had a positive church experience. He was grateful for his youth leader. But he had serious objections to Christianity. Why? He had begun studying the Bible and found he could no longer accept what it taught. Reading the Bible had led him to become an atheist.

Amazing look at evangelical Christian history.
Really great book. Well with the listen. Sadly, the cadence of the reader is really off. The emphasis in almost every sentence feels off. And makes an amazing book harder to listen to.

Better understanding of how evangelicals accept the vile hypocrisy and conman tactics of their selfish leaders.
As a young boy 50 years ago, while flipping TV stations I would stop to watch Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, Jim and Tammy Baker, Jerry Falwell and a few others. I always felt a pit in my stomach observing their smarmy pitch to seemingly millions of followers. Why and how could so many people be taken in by these slick, smooth talking charlatans was beyond my understanding until this week. Evangelicals have devolved into a cult and can blindly justify their support of an antichrist selfish buffoon who couldn't care less about anyone. How pathetic!
As a Canadian I shudder to think of the widespread damage to America, its political system, the environment, its international reputation and the support for struggling Ukraine will be inflicted if Trump is elected.
After ready Jesus and John Wayne, many questions were answered. The reader's cadence was appropriate for an audiobook trying to share a tragic slow motion train wreck history and not seem biased.

Essential Insight
Anyone who is baffled, worried, angry, hopeless, scared etc about the state of politics in this country MUST read this book. Kristen Kobes du Mez has given us a detailed chronology of the Evangelical movement with all of the relevant players, their ideology and hypocrasies; their fight to maintain and spread their corrupt patriarchal family values and the lasting damage their manical expression of christian male machismo has done. This book has given me tremendous insight on Americas' "inner struggle": (1 step forward, 2 steps back ) And as a 70 year old American woman, it has also given me a new understanding of myself. Thank you Thank you

A really great perspective
This book was so informative & I found it really intriguing to know how the North American church ended up so toxic. You can love Jesus & still hate how people are gatekeeping this religion. Definitely time for the church to start looking inwards

Worth the read in order to understand the whole Trump thing. Sad commentary on white evangelicalism but understanding the history hopefully will raise awareness amongst the church at wide.

The dangers of religion and religionists
This book is well-written and is well read by the narrator. It lays out the history of the movement that has managed to fool itself and many Americans that god exists for them. It also presents the best rationale for the election of an idiot like Donald Trump that I have yet read.
