Faith in the Age of Trump: America's Evangelical Identity Crisis
The church was dying. Not metaphorically, but literally-Cornerstone Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Brighton, Michigan was hemorrhaging members. After the death of beloved pastor Richard Alberta in 2019, his successor Chris Winans faced an exodus of congregants who viewed his compliance with COVID restrictions as capitulation to godless government. The situation worsened during racial justice protests and throughout Trump's 2020 campaign, with members demanding political statements from the pulpit. By early 2021, Winans had developed an anxiety disorder, confiding to journalist Tim Alberta (Richard's son) that too many American evangelicals "worship America." This crisis in a single Michigan church would prove to be a microcosm of a much larger fracture running through American evangelicalism-one that would prompt Alberta to spend four years embedded in churches nationwide to understand how a faith centered on Jesus Christ had become so entangled with partisan politics and nationalism.
