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

informative slow-paced

4.25

It's hard to say that I "really like" this book or think it's "amazing." I can't describe how many times it made me angry, like when pastors or other authority figures were given passes when they accused of sexual or child abuse. People just chalked it up to their god-given "masculinity." This book is not snarky or humorous despite the impression the title might give. It's a cultural foray into white evangelicalism in the US.

I did not like the narrator. She sounded robotic, bored, and dispassionate.
