Evangelical Christians claim to be the guardians of "biblical truth." They boast of defending the gospel against a hostile world, of clinging to the "faith once delivered" in the pages of scripture. But what if the opposite were true? What if Evangelicalism itself is the great heresy of our age? In The Heresy of Evangelical Christianity: Recovering the Religion of Jesus, dismantles the myths that prop up America's most influential religious movement. With precision and passion, this book argues that Evangelicals do not practice the religion of Jesus-they practice a religion about Jesus, one obsessed with his death while ignoring his life and message. From the invention of the rapture to the weaponization of "biblical gender roles," from the cult of biblical literalism to the unholy marriage with far-right politics, Evangelicalism has betrayed the radical vision of Jesus. Instead of love, it preaches fear. Instead of justice, it sanctifies domination. Instead of inclusion, it builds walls of exclusion and judgment. Drawing on biblical scholarship and cultural analysis, this book exposes how Evangelicalism distorts scripture, marginalizes people, and baptizes nationalism in the name of God. This is not ancient faith-it is a modern American invention masquerading as Christianity. But this is not just a book of critique. It is also a manifesto of recovery that calls readers back to the religion of Jesus himself: a kingdom of justice, compassion, and community that stands in stark contrast to the counterfeit gospel of Evangelicalism. Whether you remain within Christianity or step beyond it into humanist ethics, this book offers a way forward beyond the wreckage of heresy. Provocative, fearless, and deeply researched, The Heresy of Evangelical Christianity is a clarion call for anyone who has ever felt disillusioned by Evangelical faith but still longs for a spirituality rooted in truth, justice, and love.
