Why don't Evangelicals win the culture wars? Maybe it's because we think it's an opportunity to be winsome, inclusive, and welcoming. But this side of heaven, there are going to be enemies who hate the truth and are ready to take advantage of us. We need a new playbook.
InĀ Rules for Reformers, Douglas Wilson poaches the political craft of radical progressives and applies it to Christian efforts in the current culture war. The result is a spicy blend of combat manual and cultural manifesto.Ā Rules for ReformersĀ is a little bit proclamation of grace, a little bit Art of War, and a little bit analysis of past embarrassments and current cowardice, all mixed together with a bunch of advanced knife-fighting techniques. As motivating as it is provocative, Rules for Reformers is just plain good to read.
Thanks to Saul Alinsky'sĀ Rules for Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicalsāa book well-beloved by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and many othersāfor much of the shrewd advice, and for none of the worldview.

"I much prefer Wilson's sincerity to the vague and Python-esque witterings of the interfaith and ecumenical groups who barely respect their own traditions. He is willing to maintain very staunchly that Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ and that his sacrifice redeems our state of sin."
-Christopher Hitchens
"When friends ask me where I go for wise cultural analysis, the first name that always comes to mind is Doug Wilson. For years, I've found Doug's commentary on culture, politics, economics, and family to be profoundly insightful and biblically faithful. In Rules for Reformers, Doug has packaged his wise and witty cultural commentary with shrewd and gracious application of the Scriptures. In doing so, he's given those of us who love the gospel a manifest for grace-driven cultural reformation."
-Joe Rigney, author ofĀ The Things of EarthĀ andĀ Live Like a NarnianĀ and professor at Bethlehem College and Seminary
