"In 1966, Samuel S. Hill's Southern Churches in Crisis argued that southern Protestantism, a cornerstone of white southern society and culture, was shirking its moral duty by refusing to join in the fight for racial justice.".
"In Southern Churches in Crisis Revisited, which includes the 1966 text in full, Hill reexamines his earlier predictions in a new introductory essay that also describes how the study of religion in the South has become a major field of scholarly inquiry. Hill skillfully engages his critics and revisers, integrating new perspectives and recent scholarship.".
"In a second essay titled "Thirty Years Later," Hill contends that a new crisis has emerged. He finds that the current dilemma, unlike the externally driven crisis of the 1960s, is strictly an internal affair, initiated by the churches and related to doctrinal orthodoxy.
He concludes that the triumph of rational purity over the "religion of the heart" has inaugurated an era in the South's religious life that promises to produce major changes in the storied relation of church and culture in this most visibly religious section of the United States."--BOOK JACKET.
