THIS REBELLIOUS HOUSE: AMERICAN HISTORY & THE TRUTH OF CHRISTIANITY by Steven J. Keillor There was a day when the plausibility of Christianity was debated on a philosophical and metaphysical basis: Does God exist? Can a good God create and sustain a world marred by evil? Can peoples in all times and places take seriously the very particular claims made by and for Jesus Christ? But in the college classrooms of today, Christianity is often considered disproved on the basis of history. Rather than attack the supposed proofs of God’s existence, skeptics are more likely to point to slavery, patriarchalism, mistreatment of Native Americans and other historical examples of Christian oppression. Limiting himself to the United States, a country he never supposes to have been a genuinely “Christian nation,” historian Steven Keillor here meets the anti-Christian case head-on. He relies on basic Christian assumption and the best contemporary historical scholarship to present a provocative, compelling and robustly pro-Christian reading of American history. A significant book for historians, students, Christians and other citizens caught in the crossfire of America’s current-day culture wars.
