Status Updates From Has American Christianity F...

Rob Reimer’s Soul Care was published the same year this book was. Reimer would fall under the sweeping generalization of American Christianity, yet he cautions against things like legalism and he champions the work done at the cross (outside our hearts) and the free gift of grace and the fact that our feelings don’t determine our salvation.

The author spends pages trying to refute American Christianity but never gives specific background and history for what he means. What denominations? What are the historical conditions that caused it? “American Christianity” is a very vague term. The author also denounces individualism but I haven’t seen anything yet on the contrary. It feels very simplistic.
