Jesus and John Wayne
We will start Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation by Kristin Kobes Du Mez on October 20, 2025, Monday at noon.
From the back of the book: "Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping account that reveals how American evangelicals have worked for decades to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism - or, in the words of one modern chaplain, with a "spiritual badass."
As Kristin Kobes Du Mez explains, "the key to understanding this transformation is to recognize the role of culture in modern American evangelicalism."
