Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation by Kristin Kobes Du Mez

5.0

This is a succinct, to the point and easy to follow timeline of the intertwined relationship between white evangelical militarism and right wing politics. The author connects the myth of the American Cowboy (the John Wayne) and the idealized right-wing fantasy of the perfect patriarch.
