Evangelicals Living Off of Borrowed Capital

"Too often American evangelicals have settled for a Christology that can be reduced to a bumper sticker....Today's American evangelicals may be quick to speak of their love for Jesus, even wear their devotion on their sleeve, literally....But they may not be so quick to articulate an orthodox view of the object of their devotion. Their devotion is commendable, but the lack of a rigorous theology behind it means that a generation of contemporary evangelicals is living off of borrowed capital."

--Stephen Nichols, Jesus Made in America
