What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Alberta is not just a thorough and responsible reporter but a vibrant writer, capable of rendering a farcical scene in vivid hues.” – Washington Post

“Well researched and comprehensive.” – Kirkus Reviews

“Brave and absorbing.” – New York Times

“Alberta adeptly illustrates how Christian nationalism is ‘destroying the evangelical church’ on a big-picture level, as well as how it’s justified individually, framed scripturally, and blared over pulpits in support of hyper-conservative political candidates. While he suggests a ‘true Christianity’ might still be salvageable, Alberta’s own evidence reveals how deep the rot has already spread. It’s an incisive, unsparing look at a movement in crisis.” – Publishers Weekly

“Alberta’s is an astonishingly clear-eyed look at a murky movement.” – Los Angeles Times
