Synopsis
Shows how a strident theocratic minority is attacking - or steeplejacking - mainstream churches in order to eliminate progressive voices and take control., "A how-to manual for progressive Christians who want to reclaim the church from intolerant, extremist factions. An important book."--Julia Scheeres, author of Jesus Land: A Memoir An unprecedented look inside the battle for religion in America, Steeplejacking: How the Christian Right is Hijacking Mainstream Religion exposes how a strident theocratic minority is attacking--or "steeplejacking"--mainstream churches in order to eliminate progressive voices and take control of America's historic mainline denominations. An insider account by two ministers on the front lines of mainstream religion's longtime shadow war against the religious right, Steeplejacking reveals how conservative renewal groups, backed by a right-wing organization called the Institute on Religion and Democracy, use social wedge issues like homosexuality to infiltrate mainline churches and stir up dissent among members of the congregation, with the goal of taking over the leadership of the church, and ultimately, the denomination. The book unmasks the covert methods that renewal groups and the IRD use to spread their propaganda, as well as showing how the pastor and other church leaders can act as either provocateurs or protectors in the face of an attack. Churches that have been "steeplejacked" are also examined to illustrate why some are able to withstand an attack, while others succumb. Featuring a foreword by Michelle Goldberg , author of the bestselling Kingdom Coming , and an introduction by Frederick Clarkson , Steeplejacking shows how mainstream religion can fight back against the insidious tactics of the Christian right. An ordained minister forover thirty years, Sheldon Culver serves on the conference staff of the Missouri Mid-South Conference of the United Church of Christ. Rev. Dr. John Dorhauer is a member of the conference staff for the Missouri Mid-South Conference of the United Church of Christ and a weekly contributor to talk2action., Examines how the Institute on Religion and Democracy, an organisation funded by the religious right, has been systematically infiltrating churches for over 30 years in order to stir dissent and gain control., An extraordinary look inside the battle for religion in America, this insider account by two ministers shows how a strident theocratic minority is attacking--or "steeplejacking"--mainstream churches in order to eliminate progressive voices and take control of the churches., "A how-to manual for progressive Christians who want to reclaim the church from intolerant, extremist factions.

An insider account by two ministers on the front lines of the United Church of Christ's longtime "shadow war" against the religious right, Steeplejacking reveals how right-wing groups infiltrate mainstream congregations in order to win "hearts and minds," often by willful distortion of biblical teachings and the use of social wedge issues like homosexuality to stir up "moral" dissent. The book documents both the overt and covert signs that a church is under attack and discusses how the minister and other church leaders can act as either facilitators or protectors in the face of an attack. Churches that have been "steeplejacked" are examined to show how some are able to successfully fight back while others succumb, as the book also reveals the steps that churches can take to insulate themselves from future attacks. An unprecedented look at the war currently waging inside religion, Steeplejacking shows how mainstream faith is under attack by the Christian Right and what it can do to fight back. An ordained minister for thirty-three years, Sheldon Culver serves on the conference staff of the Missouri Mid-South Conference of the United Church of Christ. Rev. Dr. John C. Dorhauer isa member of the conference staff for the Missouri Mid-South Conference of the United Church of Christ and a weekly contributor to talk2action.org.

    This was a paperback/softcover 29 year old book I purchased in very good condition as described. However it was delivered in a plain white plastic envelope. They should have at least used a bubble pack lined shipping envelope for protection of the item inside. They should re-think their shipping & packaging strategies, especially with much much older delicate items. Other wise no problems whatsoever with seller. Recommended seller. A+
