In the World But Not of It

One Family’s Militant Faith and the History of American Fundamentalism

Brett Grainger

A memorable new literary voice traces the story of Christian fundamentalism in American history through the transcendent lens of his own family experience.

Brett Grainger’s clear-eyed chronicle of American fundamentalism also explores the experience of sudden, personal transformation known as “getting saved,” the paradox of creation science, and the unrelenting pursuit of purity.

BRETT GRAINGER (Massachusetts) is a former producer for the NPR show The Connection. He has also been an editor at Sojourners, a magazine of religion, politics and culture.
