The book delves into the crisis within Protestant evangelicalism, highlighting the struggle to maintain a distinct identity amidst growing connections with Catholicism and a perceived disconnect from ancient Christianity. Ken Stewart argues that evangelicalism has historically engaged with early church traditions more positively than often acknowledged. He examines key aspects such as the Lord's Supper and biblical interpretation while addressing concerns like monasticism. Ultimately, the work asserts that evangelicals can reclaim their rich heritage and rightful place within the broader Christian tradition.
