Markofski has written an ambitious and wide-ranging book mapping new terrain in the study of American evangelicalism and marking future directions for that broad religious movement so critical to American and global society. The book's compelling argument will matter for the future of evangelical Christianity, for the future of democracy, and for how we understand 'public religion' generally. We need this book for meeting the current historical moment. * Richard L. Wood, Professor of Sociology at the University of New Mexico, author of A Shared Future: Faith-based Organizing for Racial Equity (with Brad Fulton) * Markofski's ethnography on multicultural evangelicalism is much needed, deeply nuanced, and highly accessible. A must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of race, politics, and evangelicals in America. * John Inazu, Sally D. Danforth Distinguished Professor of Law and Religion, Washington University in St. Louis * This maybe the most important book in years on US evangelical Christianity, both for scholars concerned about anti-democratic trends and for students personally committed to evangelical religion. Morebroadly,this book will shape future conversations regarding public religion in the United States and globally, particularly the role religion can play in the defense and deepening of democracy. * Social Forces * This volume will be most valuable for scholars of religious studies, history, and sociology. * Choice * Markofski's book is to be highly appreciated,...the significance of Good News for Common Goods goes well beyond the US context, turning Markofski's book into a reliable guide for anyone interested in serious study of evangelical Christianity and public theology-missiology. * Pavol Bargįr, MIST 41.1 *
