Rent In God We Trust?: A Challenge to American Evangelicals

Synopsis

America's Founding Fathers often said that a 'higher power' was superintending their work. The motto, 'In God We Trust,' has appeared on American coinage since 1956. So a casual observer might think that the United States is a very pious country, but Patrick Nachtigall observes that most Americans actually have three 'gods': . Religious Freedom . Radical Individualism . Materialism Even Evangelical Christians hold these things to be sacred, which has led them into moral compromise and strikingly unbiblical behavior. What lies ahead for American Evangelicalism-and for America as a whole? A young Christian leader offers a provocative perspective. In God We Trust? challenges American Evangelicals to reexamine what they believe and practice, and calls for a life of radical faith in the years ahead.
