The Crisis of Evangelical Christianity

History & Biography

“Sewell's book is the fruit of extensive and careful research. He challenges an Anglo-Saxon evangelical self-image that unwittingly narrows the impact of its characteristic activity and conversion focus to piety, churchgoing, moralism, and philanthropy. Reform along Dispensational and Charismatic lines has not significantly refocused it. Sewell's critique is needed and will prove uncomfortable.”
