Faith Angle show

Summary: On this episode Tim Alberta and Michael Wear dig deep into Alberta's new book, The Kingdom, The Power, and The Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism. Their discussion covers the shaping of the religious and political expression of American evangelicalism in the latter half of the 20th century until today, including the movement's most influential leaders. They explore how Tim's personal experiences as a pastor's son give his journalism and coverage a unique urgency, and they highlight crucial questions of truth, accountability, and priorities within the evangelical community and in American society more broadly.   Guests: Tim Alberta Michael Wear   Additional Resources: The Kingdom, The Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism, by Tim Alberta NPR "Fresh Air" interview with Tim Alberta"The Long Game" interview with Tim AlbertaChristianity Today Russell Moore Show interview with Tim AlbertaThe Spirit of Our Politics: Spiritual Formation and the Renovation of Public Life, by Michael Wear
