Reasons to Believe: One Mans Journey Among Evangicals and the Faith He L eft Behind

From a veteran journalist and former 60 Minutes producer comes an intimate portrait of evangelicals, one of the most influential forces in America today, and the story of how this lapsed believer came to terms with his faith.

Born again at age 16, John Marks later abandoned his faith. In Reasons to Believe, he attempts to cross a deep cultural barrier to understand those who now condemn his way of life. He grapples with the message that millions of evangelicals attempt to deliver to their fellow citizens every day and speaks at length with missionaries, political activists, theologians, Christian musicians, and filmmakers. Reaching across sectarian lines, Marks arrives at a deeper understanding of what it means to be American.
