For me the greatest value of the evangelical church has been its focus on biblical learning and bible study. I miss that now I attend an Anglican church.
As for what should be left behind: politics. Trying to gain earthly power is not working well for the church imo, as it's pushing it into unwise relationships.
Congratulations on the new book, Michelle! Also, thank you for offering a way to give to organizations in Israel. I'll be sharing this with my readers.
This 8s a great writing project. Can't wait to read it. You might find the podcast Kindavangelical interesting. I have loved his grace life message and am not tracking with him completely but he's brought up a lot of important areas. Pete Briscoe, that is. Good food for thought in the area you are talking about!
Congrats Michelle!! Can't wait to read your thoughts on this subject. I'm reading Andrew Wilson's "Remaking the World". Fascinating look at how the 18th century shaped the post Christian West.
Write this book! Can't wait to read. I was born, raised and attended college - all steeped in evangelicalism. It is time to let go. It is time for the new. God is in it.

Good words - and I agree with you about the value of study and learning that Evangelicalism has made accessible to many.
