If cities are so awful and fearsome and un-American, as some in evangelical communities like to suggest, then why are so many of the children from those communities fleeing to them and finding home here?
Robert P. Jones is a writer who has investigated the mores and compromises of evangelical America in the age of Trump. I spoke with him about my new book, MAN IN THE MIRROR, and how cities should refuse to be cast as un-American as against evangelical America.
