Tim Challies reviews <\/a>a new book by another recovering Evangelical, but this one has an interesting twist to it than most books like it these days. Here\u2019s a snippet from the review:<\/p>\n

\u201cMy name is Warren, and I\u2019m a recovering evangelical.\u201d There are plenty of books today that begin in roughly this way\u2014biographies by Franky Schaeffer and Bart Ehrman come to mind. But Warren Cole Smith is different in that he remains an evangelical, he remains a professed Christian. His recovery from evangelicalism does not involve tossing away the faith, as others have prescribed. His recovery involves reformation, not of the Christian faith but of its evangelical (and largely American) expression. His quarrel with evangelicals is a lover\u2019s quarrel, not a pitched battle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
