The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind

In this award-winning critique, historian Mark Noll explores the surprising lack of rigorous intellectual engagement within the evangelical movement, despite its growing influence and resources. Reflecting on over 25 years since its original publication, the book examines the reasons behind evangelicals' limited involvement in high culture, academia, and the arts, while also addressing contemporary issues such as political trends and attitudes toward science. Noll’s insights remain relevant and thought-provoking, offering a nuanced perspective on the intellectual landscape of modern evangelicalism.
