Despite decades of claims to the contrary, the United States remains a deeply religious nation and American religious professionals occupy a prominent role in shaping the interests and attitudes of their congregations. In this timely and groundbreaking work, Paul A. Djupe and Christopher Gilbert analyze national data from a survey of over 2,400 Episcopal and Evangelical Lutheran Church of America clergy, looking deeper into their motivations for political action. Using the survey data, the authors argue that while personal motivations are a factor, the decisions clergy make about their role in political and civic life are greatly affected by the specific needs of their congregations and communities as well as ongoing influences from their denominations.As we head into another election season, The Prophetic Pulpit highlights the importance of every player in the political arena.
