Summary

America’s Christian roots shaped its laws, institutions, and culture in ways that are impossible to separate from the nation’s founding. After generations of cultural drift, many are asking whether the Church still has a role to play in shaping the future of American society. Mike Slater and Dr. Hunter Baker examine America’s Christian foundation, the Church’s influence on public life, and whether it can reclaim its place in the culture.
