Public pulpits : Methodists and mainline churches in the moral argument of public life

Author:	Steven M Tipton
Publisher:	Chicago : University of Chicago Press, 2007.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	"Since the 2000 presidential election, debate over the role of religion in public life has followed a narrow course as pundits and politicians alike have focused on the influence wielded by conservative Christians. But what about more mainstream Christians? Here, Steven M.Tipton examines the political activities of Methodists and mainline churches in this groundbreaking investigation into a generation of denominational strife among church leaders, lobbyists, and activists. The result is an unusually detailed and thoughtful account that upends common stereotypes while asking searching questions about the contested relationship between church and state." "Documenting a wide range of reactions to two distinctively disputed events - the invasion of Iraq and the creation of faith-based initiatives - Tipton charts the new terrain of religious and moral argument under the Bush administration from Pat Robertson to Jim Wallis. He then turns to the case of the United Methodist Church to uncover the twentieth-century history of its political advocacy, culminating in current threats to split the church between crusaders for evangelical renewal and prophetic witnesses for peace and justice." "Public Pulpits balances the firsthand drama of this internal account with a meditative exploration of the wider social impact that mainline churches have had in a time of diverging fortunes and diminished dreams of progress."--BOOK JACKET.  Read more...
