Biography
Richard G. Kyle is Professor Emeritus of History and Religion, Tabor College in Hillsboro, Kansas, USA.
In this deeply researched but also very readable book, Kyle takes a hard look at the pervasively popular character of evangelical Christianity as it has developed in the United States. It is just the book for those who hope to think - and not just react or pontificate - about the place of evangelicals in contemporary American society. Mark Noll, McAnaney Professor of History Emeritus, University of Notre Dame, USA
Evangelicals and interested outsiders who wonder why evangelicals seem so at ease in the currents of popular culture will find Kyle’s argument worth considering. Seth Dowland, Associate Professor of Religion, Pacific Lutheran Univeristy, USA
