| Summary: | Evangelicals are increasingly turning their attention toward issues such as the environment, international human rights economic development, racial reconciliation and urban renewal. This marks an expansion of the social agenda advanced by the religious right over the past few decades. For outsiders to evangelical culture, this trend complicates simplistic stereotypes. For insiders, it brings contention over what 'true' evangelicalism means today. This book brings together an impressive interdisciplinary team of scholars to map this new religious terrain and spell out its significance. |
