E.J. Dionne's essay in yesterday's Washington Post talks hopefully about "A Shift Among the Evangelicals." He quotes Bill Leonard and Robert Parham.
I think it premature to conclude that evangelicals are shifting. When we see signs that they are giving up on making America a Christian Nation by force of politics, legislation, and ajudication we'll know that there has been a significant shift. That would mean that they have returned to their originl evangelical mission -- changing lives one at a time.
