Join us for an evening with D. Michael Lindsay, author of Faith in the Halls of Power, for a conversation on faith, power and what happens when leaders bring values to work.

“Given the confusion and misunderstanding surrounding the evangelical movement in the U.S., Michael Lindsay has produced a work of lasting importance. A keen and disciplined researcher of the religious scene, Lindsay has drawn upon hundreds of personal interviews with evangelical leaders representing the power centers of politics, academe, entertainment and business. He brings readers a clear and authentic account of the extent to which evangelicals are changing America.”

—GEORGE GALLUP, JR., Founding Chairman, The George H. Gallup International Institute
