What do you see as the greatest threat to modern-day Christians? In the United States, I think the second-greatest threat is a new progressive, secular ideology that is coming to dominate the academy, the government, the corporate world, and the mainstream media. It is against freedom of speech and deeply opposed to religious people expressing or practicing many aspects of their faith in public.

However, the first and greatest threat is the failure of the American church itself:

› The mainline church wedded itself to liberal political parties, and the evangelical church has done that with conservative political parties, and so we are now seen as nothing but a political power bloc.

› Also there have been numerous egregious examples of hypocrisy with many prominent church leaders being found guilty of various forms of abuse and corrupt behavior.

› Instead of admitting past ways in which the American church has participated in the marginalization and exploitation of various peoples, a vociferous segment of the modern evangelical church has refused to repent and listen, and instead has become harsh and denunciatory in its communication.

› The church has failed to fulfill the Great Commission in our time, in that it has not discovered a way to evangelize a post-Christian, secular culture. (See Les­slie Newbigin's seminal article, "Can the West Be Converted?")
