In 1994, Mark. A. Noll published The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind. In it, he laments that evangelicals have contributed little to intellectual scholarship. “The scandal of the evangelical mind is that there is not much of an evangelical mind.”

In The State of the Evangelical Mind, editors Todd C. Ream, Jerry Pattengale, and Christopher J. Devers gather a variety of contributors a quarter-century later to consider how evangelicals are thinking.

The essays are broad, reflecting a variety of realms—churches, parachurch organizations, colleges, universities, and seminaries. They point the way forward, suggesting paths for future evangelicals to faithfully steward their mental resources in the service of Christ.
