At the start of the 21st century, America was awash in a sea of evangelical talk. The Purpose Driven Life. Joel Osteen. The Left Behind novels. George W. Bush. Evangelicalism had become so powerful and pervasive that political scientist Alan Wolfe wrote of "a sense in which we are all evangelicals now." Steven P.

The Jesus People movement was a unique combination of the hippie counterculture and evangelical Christianity. It first appeared in the famed "Summer of Love" of 1967, in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district, and spread like wildfire in Southern California and beyond, to cities like Seattle, Atlanta, and Milwaukee.

They believe in the transformative power of a personal relationship with God, but are wary of religious enthusiasm.

In this groundbreaking history of modern American evangelicalism, Molly Worthen argues that these contradictions are the products of a crisis of authority that lies at the heart of the faith.

In this new and substantially expanded Third Edition, Philip Jenkins continues to illuminate the remarkable expansion of Christianity in the global South - in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

How should we interpret the enormous success of prosperity churches across the Global South? Politically, what will be the impact of new Christian movements?

In this critique of modern evangelicals, theologian and writer Robert M. Price outlines several of the difficulties to be found in traditional evangelical apologetics, such as the evangelical defense of the historical reliability of the gospels, the resurrection of Jesus, and the claims of Jesus to be divine.

Because there is so little real prayer. We may be assured of this: The secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer. The Lord Jesus is as powerful today as ever before.

If the Bible is true, why don't we see God doing today the kind of miracles we read about in the New Testament? Why doesn't God speak to people like He did in the Book of Acts? These were the questions the author had as he was challenged to give his life to God and follow Jesus as a "true disciple". At first, Don Schulze wasn't sure he was really hearing from God...because what he was hearing didn't seem to make sense. Could God really be calling him to leave a good career and a stable life to take his family on a journey of ministry around the world?
