The Immoral Majority: Why Evangelicals Chose Political Power Over Christian Values by Ben Howe
3.0
This book was difficult to read because I could relate to so much of it, and reading it stressed me out. I had to put the book down for a minute when school started, and I just didn't have the energy or motivation to finish it. I (barely) skimmed through the sermon-like final chapter. Perhaps I shouldn't even count this as one for my reading challenge, but I'm going to anyway.
Howe manages to convey my thoughts on the debacle that was 2016 (and the mess that followed) almost exactly. As a conservative Christian, he offers an honest and unflinching critique of the state of the church and the evangelical movement. Those who are neither conservative nor religious probably won't enjoy this book as it's written from the perspective of both of those groups. I can't bring myself to give this over 3 stars, because I didn't enjoy reading it at all, and the subject matter is so headache-inducing.
