JESUS AND JOHN WAYNE is a sweeping account that reveals how American evangelicals have worked for decades to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism - or, in the words of one modern chaplain, with a "spiritual badass." As Kristin Kobes Du Mez explains, the key to understanding this transformation is to recognize the role of culture in modern American evangelicalism. Evangelical books, films, music, clothing, and merchandise influence the beliefs of millions, and evangelical popular culture is teeming with muscular heroes - mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like John Wayne, Mel Gibson, Donald Trump, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of "Christian America." The values at the heart of white evangelicalism today - patriarchy, authoritarian rule, aggressive foreign policy, fear of Islam, ambivalence toward #MeToo, and opposition to Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQ community - have transformed the faith, with enduring consequences for all Americans. 541 $d 20210824. 600 $a Trump, Donald $d 1946- 650 $a Christianity and culture $z United States. 650 $a Evangelicalism $z United States. 651 $a United States $x Church history $y 21st century. 941 $a 10 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314023244.0 952 $l EYPC755 $d 20240117011634.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111012603.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20230922010306.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015241.0 952 $l BXPC851 $d 20221103010557.0 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20221004013047.0 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20220311010525.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220129011838.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20211130011927.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5997390451AB11EC976C337B48ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
