The future of evangelical faith begins today, with you. Evangelicalism faces an uncertain future. In this book, written just before his death, Calvin Miller takes a critical and prophetic look at the movement he loved, believing we can shape the future only if we understand the present. American evangelicalism, he warns, has largely adapted to the culture and as a result is waning in its vitality and influence. The Vanishing Evangelical looks at the broad cultural influences that are shaping the whole movement, and Miller's sage counsel challenges us to confront these forces and take steps to develop a personal, vital spirituality." - Publisher.
