As one of the finest religion writers in the U.S., Gustav Niebuhr presents
a unique perspective on the future of organized Christianity in America. Niebuhr
explores the ways Christian churches are preparing for the third millennium
in a time of growing religious pluralism, increasing influence of secular
ideologies, and the rising importance of Christianity in the developing world.
As the bonds between the American people and established institutions are
weakening, Niebuhr reflects on how American churches are countering with an
organizational structure that appeals to people of faith. Niebuhr previously
covered religion for the Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal,
and the Atlanta Journal/Constitution. He has been the New York Times'
national correspondent for religion since 1994.
