It does me good to pause from time to time to read an account of a person coming to faith. It never ceases to fascinate me how many different paths we take to that one door and it never ceases to e…

"Trammell does a good job of helping us understand what evangelicals have done historically, especially when it came to the teachings of evolution and prohibition and I also believe this can help evangelicals navigate cultural engagement today."

In Carl Henry’s 1947 book The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism, he calls for a ren...
