(Post-Dispatch) St. Louis author Stephen Miller explores the "age of evangelicalism"

Evangelicals are defined in various ways. What’s your definition of who an evangelical is?

My definition of evangelicals for the book is deliberately broad so as to be inclusive of the range of answers that people on the street might give you if you’re asking them “what is an evangelical?”

Traditionally within evangelical culture the focus is on a very distinct conversion experience in which there is a conscious acceptance of the Christian faith and perhaps even some discernible movement of the Holy Spirit.

In the book you write about what it was like to be an evangelical in the ’70s. How was being an evangelical then different from what it may be like today?

Read it all.
