Christianity in America -- Quote from Brian McClaren

Posted on Tuesday, May 25, 2010 by Jim Leave a comment

Sometimes I think there is really only one Christian denomination in America: American Civil Religion -- a consumerist, militarist, therapeutic, colonial, nationalist chaplaincy that baptizes and blesses whatever the richest and most powerful nation on the planet wants to do.

Brian McClaren (words at the front of Shane Claiborne's The Irresistible Revolution)

I struggle, in particular, with the church being a chaplaincy.

So, then, what do we do?
