“Amid the rise of authoritarian reactionary Christianity, we have desperately needed serious voices of Christian theological analysis and resistance, not just political commentary. This groundbreaking book offers a magnificently conceived theological critique of right-wing politicized Christianity and a profound alternative vision.”—David Gushee, Distinguished University Professor of Christian Ethics, Mercer University; author, Defending Democracy from Its Christian Enemies “A beautiful, rigorous call for a theology of grief and acceptance in the face of a rapidly changing world. An utterly transformative book for our times.”—Alejandra Oliva, author, Rivermouth: A Chronicle of Language, Faith, and Migration “In this stirring and engaging new study, Mac Loftin raises a new and important theological voice. Loftin shows us the possibility of real resistance. An indispensable book for any serious Christian.” —Matthew Ichihashi Potts, Plummer Professor of Christian Morals, Harvard University
