and recommend it for anyone who wants to understand what is going on inside the evangelical community supporting Trump. It's about power. The scary thing is, it's creeping into mainline churches. There is a study book and discussion guide that goes with this book. It doesn't have to be done in a church setting. Any interested group would find it useful.
