The Sinner's Guide to the Evangelical Right
From Bibles designed to look like glossy fashion magazines to mega-churches with ATMs, rock climbing walls, and in one case, a drive-thru McDonalds, the nuances of conservative evangelical culture are no mystery to Robert Lanham, who has his roots in the Bible Belt. Now, with his anthropological eye and trademark wit, Lanham has compiled a handy guide to the evangelical right for those who can expect to be left behind in the End of Days.

A great read.
The only things that I would suggest as revisions would be making the distinction between the emerging church and the emergent church. They are not separated in the book. Also, a better understanding of the differing genres of books of the Bible would be helpful. For example, in the book they would look at Genesis (a narrative book) the same way they would look at Romans (a letter).Overall, I think this is a great read. (show less)
