[Nancy Peifer · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a thought-provoking book that seems important for American followers of Jesus to read in this moment. Has the church mixed up what it means to be a Christian with what it means to be an American? They are definitely not one and the same, although we can be both at the same time. But it is problematic, even detrimental to our Christian witness, if we believe them to be one and the same. Boyd explains this carefully and comprehensively from Scripture.
