"That Looper writes in an engaging, informal style accessible to ordinary no less than learned readers does not diminish the sharpness of his central argument: Evangelicals are confronting nothing less than a status confessionis: a condition of crisis wherein a political threat ’puts serious barriers in the way of preaching the gospel.’ The churches must take a strong public stand on behalf of their central beliefs and thus for the Word of God that they confess."
"Politicized evangelicals believe themselves to be fighting secularization, but Joel Looper argues that his fellow evangelicals are in fact making it worse: the church is secularizing itself by replacing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with cultural conservatism, and the church with the nation. No wonder people are walking away from the church! Looper calls those who have accepted Donald Trump as their personal lord and savior to return to the Jesus of the Bible."

"In Another Gospel, Joel Looper provides a formidable and timely critique of the contemporary religious right based in conservative Christian theology. Looper’s book is for those wrestling with the question of how American evangelicalism lost its way politically—those searching for a theological answer to white Christian nationalism and the anti-democratic ideology that has captured so many on the religious right."
—Scott M. Coley, Mount St. Mary’s University, author of Ministers of Propaganda: Truth, Power, and the Ideology of the Religious Right
