       Epilogue : reflecting on reflexive evangelicals. 
520    "Evangelicals have been scandalized by their association 
       with Donald Trump, their megachurches summarily dismissed 
       as "religious Walmarts." In The Subversive Evangelical 
       Peter Schuurman shows how a growing group of "reflexive 
       evangelicals" use irony to critique their own tradition 
       and distinguish themselves from the stereotype of right-
       wing evangelicalism. Entering the Meeting House--an 
       Ontario-based Anabaptist megachurch--as a participant 
       observer, Schuurman discovers that the marketing is clever
       and the venue (a rented movie theatre) is attractive to 
       the more than five thousand weekly attendees. But the 
       heart of the church is its charismatic leader, Bruxy Cavey,
       whose anti-religious teaching and ironic tattoos offer a 
       fresh image for evangelicals. This charisma, Schuurman 
       argues, is not just the power of one individual; it is a 
       dramatic production in which Cavey, his staff, and 
       attendees cooperate, cultivating an identity as an 
       "irreligious" megachurch and providing followers with a 
       more culturally acceptable way to practise their faith in 
       a secular age. Going behind the scenes to small group 
       meetings, church dance parties, and the homes of attendees
       to investigate what motivates these reflexive evangelicals,
       Schuurman reveals a playful and provocative counterculture
       that distances itself from prevailing stereotypes while 
       still embracing a conservative Christian faith."--
