Summary:
Sociologist George Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root causes of ""Christianophobia,"" or intense anti-Christian hostility. He considers to what extent Christians have themselves contributed to this animosity and explores how we can respond more constructively, defusing tensions and working toward the common good.
