Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. An inside look at the young, diverse, progressive Christians who are transforming the evangelical movement Deborah Jian Lee left the evangelical world because she was frustrated by its conservative politics. But over the years she stayed close to those in the movement, and she has come to realize that evangelical culture and politics are changing, and changing fast.

Generational changes and the shifting racial make-up of evangelicals are transforming the movement and pushing it in a more progressive direction. A young and diverse array of people on this leading edge of progressive evangelicalism-LGBTQ and straight; white, black, Asian, Hispanic, and indigenous-are working to wrest political power away from conservatives.

With empathy, journalistic rigor, and powerful storytelling, Lee unpacks the diverse and complex strands of this movement-and what it means for the rest of us.
