Election Day is 50 days away. What are evangelicals saying?

A group of evangelicals have issued “Our Confession of Evangelical Conviction.” It is essentially an anti-MAGA document. It is signed by some well-known evangelicals with big platforms. What strikes me about the statement is how it defines “evangelical.” It defines […]           Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by John Fea  (?)

“History reminds us of the inherent weakness in the human condition and the very real possibility that our fellow human beings are capable of horrendous things. This should humble us, for “there but for the grace of God, go I.”
John Fea, Why Study History?: Reflecting on the Importance of the Past

“Evangelicals can do better than Donald Trump. His campaign and presidency have drawn on a troubling pattern of American evangelicalism that is willing to yield to old habits grounded in fear, nostalgia, and the search for power. Too many of its leaders (and their followers) have traded their Christian witness for a mess of political pottage and a few federal judges. It should not surprise us that people are leaving evangelicalism or no longer associating themselves with that label—or, in some cases, leaving the church altogether.”
John Fea, Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump

“Nothing Trump could say or do would deter his diehard white evangelical supporters. This is still the case. Most evangelicals were willing to ignore his moral lapses because he had, to their way of thinking, the correct policy proposals.”
John Fea, Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump
