What is an evangelical? Who is an evangelical and who is not? These are questions which continually crop up as more people claim a place on the most successful bandwagon in the wider church.

Edited by Collin Hansen (who works for the Gospel Coalition, Christianity Today and authored the book Young, Restless and Reformed), four heavyweights seek to answer those questions in the context of the US scene. In particular, they interact concerning how to respond to the three vital issues of evangelical relations with Roman Catholics, Open Theism and the doctrine of the cross as substitutionary atonement.
