NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The “paradigm-influencing” book (Christianity Today) that is fundamentally transforming our understanding of white evangelicalism in America. Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping, revisionist history of the last seventy-five years of white evangelicalism, revealing how evangelicals have worked to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism—or in the words of one modern chaplain, with “a spiritual badass.” As acclaimed scholar Kristin Du Mez explains, the key to understanding this transformation is to recognize the centrality of popular culture in contemporary American evangelicalism. Many of today’s evangelicals might not be theologically astute, but they know their VeggieTales, they’ve read John Eldredge’s Wild at Heart, and they learned about purity before they learned about sex—and they have a silver ring to prove it. Evangelical books, films, music, clothing, and merchandise shape the beliefs of millions. And evangelical culture is teeming with muscular heroes—mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of “Christian America.” Chief among these evangelical legends is John Wayne, an icon of a lost time when men were uncowed by political correctness, unafraid to tell it like it was, and did what needed to be done. Challenging the commonly held assumption that the “moral majority” backed Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 for purely pragmatic reasons, Du Mez reveals that Trump in fact represented the fulfillment, rather than the betrayal, of white evangelicals’ most deeply held values: patriarchy, authoritarian rule, aggressive foreign policy, fear of Islam, ambivalence toward #MeToo, and opposition to Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQ community. A much-needed reexamination of perhaps the most influential subculture in this country, Jesus and John Wayne shows that, far from adhering to biblical principles, modern white evangelicals have remade their faith, with enduring consequences for all Americans.

"O LIVRO DE DU MEZ É URGENTE E NECESSÁRIO NO BRASIL... ESTA OBRA MARAVILHOSA EXIGE CURIOSIDADE E HUMILDADE." — RONILSO PACHECO Jesus e John Wayne é uma análise histórica contundente e desconcertante que revisita os últimos 75 anos do evangelicalismo branco estadunidense – definição que extrapola qualquer autodeclaração que leve em conta a cor da pele, indicando a adesão a um conjunto de ideologias – e revela como os cristãos têm substituído o humilde Jesus dos Evangelhos por ídolos de masculinidade autoritária e pelo nacionalismo cristão. Para a aclamada historiadora Kristin Kobes Du Mez, o segredo para compreender essa inversão é reconhecer a centralidade da cultura popular no evangelicalismo dos Estados Unidos. Muitos dos evangélicos de hoje podem não ser teologicamente instruídos, mas foram influenciados por uma cultura que idealiza a masculinidade agressiva e militante — tipo simbolizado por John Wayne, ícone hollywoodiano de um tempo em que os homens não se deixavam intimidar pelo "politicamente correto". Como argumenta Du Mez, tal cultura culminou na defesa de valores que traem o cristianismo, como o patriarcado, o governo autoritário, uma política externa agressiva, a intolerância e o racismo. Um reexame necessário de uma das mais influentes subculturas dos Estados Unidos, Jesus e John Wayne mostra que, longe de abraçar princípios bíblicos, os evangélicos adeptos à essas ideologias recriaram sua fé gerando consequências duradouras para toda uma tradição. Os insights oferecidos por Du Mez certamente nos fazem olhar com ainda mais zelo para o cristianismo vivido e pregado também no contexto brasileiro.

This book is about men, manhood, and masculinity. It is not intended to be slight to women. Today, masculinity takes a bad rap. Forces proven successful in destroying the family are now marshaling against the foundations of manhood. My purpose is to draw men back to a traditional, biblical understanding of their role as protector, provider, and patriarch of the home in obedience to Paul's command to, "Act like men, [and] be strong," (1st Corinthians 16:13). Examples of how far we have fallen from the traditional model are taken from the historical record and also seen through the lens of movies and television. Abundant biblical illustrations along with personal lifetime experiences are used in testimony. As the American population continues to urbanize, this message is both to the culture and to the church that seems intent on identifying with it. My hope is that both will examine where they were, where they are, and where they should be, and make necessary course corrections before the inevitable shipwreck. This book is a clarion call, a tocsin, that, if heard, will help bring renewal to this great land before it is completely lost to the religion of secularism.

'Jesús y John Wayne' es una amplia historia revisionista de los últimos setenta y cinco años del evangelismo blanco que revela cómo los evangélicos han trabajado para sustituir al Jesús de los Evangelios por un ídolo de la masculinidad ruda y el nacionalismo cristiano, o en palabras de un capellán moderno, por "un malote espiritual". Como explica la aclamada académica Kristin Du Mez, la clave para entender esta transformación es reconocer la centralidad de la cultura popular en el evangelismo estadounidense contemporáneo. Muchos de los evangélicos de hoy pueden no ser teológicamente astutos, pero conocen sus VeggieTales (dibujos animados cristianos), han leído 'Wild at Heart' de John Eldredge, aprendieron sobre la pureza antes de aprender sobre el sexo y tienen un anillo de plata para demostrarlo. Los libros, las películas, la música, la ropa y los productos evangélicos conforman las creencias de millones de personas. Y la cultura evangélica está repleta de héroes musculosos: guerreros míticos y soldados rudos, hombres como Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson y el clan Duck Dynasty, que afirman el poder masculino blanco en defensa de la "América cristiana". La principal de estas leyendas evangélicas es John Wayne, un icono de una época perdida en la que los hombres no se acobardaban por la corrección política, no temían decir las cosas como eran y hacían lo que había que hacer. Desafiando la suposición comúnmente sostenida de que la "mayoría moral" apoyó a Donald Trump en 2016 y 2020 por razones puramente pragmáticas, Du Mez revela que Trump, de hecho, representó el cumplimiento, en lugar de la traición, de los valores más profundamente arraigados de los evangélicos blancos: el patriarcado, el gobierno autoritario, la política exterior agresiva, el miedo al Islam, la ambivalencia hacia el #MeToo y la oposición a Black Lives Matter y la comunidad LGBTQ. Una reexaminación muy necesaria de la subcultura más influyente de este país, Jesús y John Wayne muestra que, lejos de adherirse a los principios bíblicos, los evangélicos blancos modernos han rehecho su fe con consecuencias duraderas para todos los estadounidenses.

Are you a terrorist? the officer asked me in broken French/ English through the big smile on his face. I smirked and answered back, I have been accused of that. The smile left his face, and I figured out pronto that my Texas sense of humor was not appreciated, and an African prison could be in my future. This is a story at once simple and complex, and you will find yourself laughing on one page and tearing up on the next. In the alien landscape of west central Africa as a "paramedic"- a wildly limiting title- Britz finds beauty, hope and lessons of love, faith and making a difference. Have a Good Day for Jesus and John Wayne is equally an adventure story, a drama, a black comedy, a comedy comedy and a testimony, and does not allow itself to be returned to its shelf until the reading is done. Again and again and again, the message of God s ever-presence, gentle caring and eagerness to be called on radiates from diverse situations. Richard G. Britz is the quintessential action/ adventure guy. Having a good day for Jesus and John Wayne truly sums up the way he lives. He can be found wandering between Texas and Africa on a regular basis working & practicing his unique style of full contact evangelism. Whether he is at work as a medic, a teacher or a hand, saving souls, fighting death, stamping out disease or building a fence his passion & God s calling on him shines through. He is married with three daughters, two dogs, and calls the hill country of Texas home.

In The Gaithers and Southern Gospel, Ryan P. Harper examines songwriters Bill and Gloria Gaither's Homecoming video and concert series--a gospel music franchise that, since its beginning in 1991, has outperformed all Christian and much secular popular music on the American music market. The Homecomings represent "southern gospel." Typically that means a musical style popular among white evangelical Christians in the American South and Midwest, and it sometimes overlaps in style, theme, and audience with country music. The Homecomings' nostalgic orientation--their celebration of "traditional" kinds of American Christian life--harmonize well with southern gospel music, past and present. But amidst the backward gazes, the Homecomings also portend and manifest change. The Gaithers' deliberate racial integration of their stages, their careful articulation of a relatively inclusive evangelical theology, and their experiments with an array of musical forms demonstrate that the Homecoming is neither simplistically nostalgic, nor solely "southern." Harper reveals how the Gaithers negotiate a tension between traditional and changing community norms as they seek simultaneously to maintain and expand their audience as well as to initiate and respond to shifts within their fan base. Pulling from his field work at Homecoming concerts, behind the scenes with the Gaithers, and with numerous Homecoming fans, Harper reveals the Homecoming world to be a dynamic, complicated constellation in the formation of American religious identity.

Jean Vanier celebrates the gospel of John in his highly anticipated latest work, Drawn into the Mystery of Jesus through the Gospel of John. Thoroughly personal and inspiring, it challenges all Christians to encounter the fullness of life lived in close communion with God. Vanier writes: "These insights that I share in this book come from the life of Jesus in me ... They also flow from my life with people who are weak and who have taught me to welcome Jesus from the place of the poverty in me." Jean Vanier was a friend and influential mentor to the late Henri Nouwen. Toward the end of his life, Nouwen left Harvard to live and work at one of Jean Vanier's L'Arche communities. This was perhaps the most profound experience of Christianity Nouwen experienced. The thought and spiritual direction/discipleship of Jean Vanier is available to all in Drawn into the Mystery of Jesus through the Gospel of John.

A rare behind-the-scenes look at John Wayne: the legend, hero, and Hollywood icon of numerous epic Western films, including an Academy Award-winning performance in True Grit. No legend ever walked taller than “The Duke.” Now, author Michael Munn’s startling new biography of John Wayne sets the record straight on why Wayne didn’t serve in World War II, on director John Ford’s contribution to Wayne’s career, and the mega-star’s highs and lows: three failed marriages, and two desperate battles with cancer. Munn also discloses publicly, for the first time, Soviet dictator Josef Stalin’s plot to assassinate Wayne because of his outspoken, potentially influential anti-Communist views. Drawing on time spent with Wayne on the set of Brannigan—and almost 100 interviews with those who knew him—Munn’s rare, behind-the-scenes look proves this “absolute all-time movie star” was as much a hero in real life as he ever was on-screen.

USA Today Bestseller Christianity Today 2022 Book Award Finalist (History & Biography) "A powerful work of skillful research and personal insight."--Publishers Weekly Biblical womanhood--the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers--pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It arose from a series of clearly definable historical moments. This book moves the conversation about biblical womanhood beyond Greek grammar and into the realm of church history--ancient, medieval, and modern--to show that this belief is not divinely ordained but a product of human civilization that continues to creep into the church. Barr's historical insights provide context for contemporary teachings about women's roles in the church and help move the conversation forward. Interweaving her story as a Baptist pastor's wife, Barr sheds light on the #ChurchToo movement and abuse scandals in Southern Baptist circles and the broader evangelical world, helping readers understand why biblical womanhood is more about human power structures than the message of Christ.
