{"product_id":"apostles-of-reason","title":"Apostles of Reason","description":"In Apostles of Reason, Molly Worthen offers a sweeping intellectual history of modern American evangelicalism. Traditionally, evangelicalism has been seen as a cohesive--indeed almost monolithic--religious movement. Sometimes, religion drops out of the picture and evangelicalism is treated strictly as a political force. Worthen argues that these views are false. Evangelicalism is, rather, a community of believers preoccupied by shared anxieties. Evangelicals differ from one another on the details of their ideas about God and humankind, but three elemental concerns unite them: how to reconcile faith and reason; how to know Jesus; and how to act on faith in a secularized public square. In combination, under the pressures of modernity, and in the absence of a guiding authority capable of resolving uncertainties and disagreements, these anxieties have shaped evangelicals into a distinctive spiritual community.","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54253170393432,"sku":"9780199896462","price":33.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780199896462.jpg?v=1753461945","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/apostles-of-reason","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
