How American Experience Reflects Global Faith

By Mark A. Noll
(IVP Academic, 2009)

With characteristic rigor and insight, Mark Noll revisits the history of the American church in the context of world events.

He makes the compelling case that how Americans have come to practice the Christian faith is just as globally important as what the American church has done in the world. He backs up this substantial claim with the scholarly attentiveness we have come to expect from him, lucidly explaining the relationship between the development of Christianity in North America and the development of Christianity in the rest of the world, with attention to recent transfigurations in world Christianity.

Hardcover, 250 pages.

Noting that cultural wars tend to precede the shooting kind, Dr. James Davison Hunter opens here with some pretty hair-raising prognostications: the last time America was rent by such bitterly acrimonious debate over fundamental issues of political ideology was just prior to the Civil War.
