From the Publisher
Praise for Randall Balmer’s “Bad Faith: Race and the Religious Right”
Lisa Sharon Harper
“Bad Faith is the essential reader for all who want to know how America was pushed to the brink and how the evangelical church was led off a cliff.”
Bishop Michael Curry
“Balmer’s highly engaging and provocative book pulls back the curtain to reveal how race, not abortion, was the key issue in the birth of what has become a powerful and disturbing alliance.”
Elaine Pagels
“This brilliant, readable detective story demonstrates that the Religious Right, far from speaking for all evangelicals, has masked its recent—and deviant—origin among groups advocating white supremacy.”
Jemar Tisby
“Fantastic. . . . Before you read another headline or write another social media post about religion, race, or politics, read this book.”
Meet the Author
Randall Balmer holds the John Phillips Chair in Religion at Dartmouth College, Dartmouth’s oldest endowed professorship. He previously taught as professor of American religious history at Columbia University for twenty-seven years. In his scholarship, Dr. Balmer focuses on Christianity’s interrelationships with American politics. He has written widely on this topic in books such as God in the White House: How Faith Shaped the Presidency from John F. Kennedy to George W. Bush, The Making of Evangelicalism: From Revivalism to Politics and Beyond, and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory: A Journey into the Evangelical Subculture in America—the latter adapted into an award-winning documentary for PBS.
