520    "In this evocative ethnography, Omri Elisha examines the 
       hopes, frustrations, and activist strategies of American 
       evangelical Christians as they engage socially with local 
       communities. Focusing on two Tennessee megachurches, Moral
       Ambition reaches beyond political controversies over 
       issues such as abortion, same-sex marriage, and public 
       prayer to highlight the ways that evangelicals at the 
       grassroots of the Christian Right promote faith-based 
       causes intended to improve the state of social welfare. 
       The book shows how these ministries both help churchgoers 
       embody religious virtues and create provocative new 
       opportunities for evangelism on a public scale. Elisha 
       challenges conventional views of U.S. evangelicalism as 
       narrowly individualistic, elucidating instead the inherent
       contradictions that activists face in their efforts to 
       reconcile religious conservatism with a renewed interest 
       in compassion, poverty, racial justice, and urban 
       revivalism"--Provided by publisher.
