Trading the Gospel for Political Power

[phkrause]

The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism is a compelling and ultimately disheartening analysis of what happens when the church engages with political power.

Somewhat familiar with this person. Alberta speaks of the evangelical Church at large being "radicalized" much like fundamentalism in Islam and that how it's viewed inside Evangelical circles is that if one leaves Trump that defaults into leaving Christ and ceasing to be Christian. 

The Democrat Party has been radicalized to the point members of it can been seen standing on sidewalks and t.v. with their fists clinched screaming that men are women, pedophiles are "minor attracted persons" and asserting its wholesome and good that men purporting to be women insert themselves into women's sports, bathrooms and showers. More incredible is that a significant number of people who identify as Democrat continue to vote politicians who support the aforementioned into office, repeatedly. 

Can we point to people in leadership positions within Christianity that have failed to practice what they preach? Absolutely we can and I'm sure Tim Alberta documented a lot of this going on in the Evangelical universe. The same can be done for any organization. I can say this, Tim's book will confirm a liberal democrats' views on Evangelicals, and it will motivate folks that are more conservative minded that they better vote and convince others to vote for Donald Trump.
