    What's the big deal? According to Moore, Christianity is in crisis in
    the United States today.

    Moore is now the editor-in-chief of the Christianity Today
    magazine and has written a new book, Losing Our Religion: An Altar
    Call For Evangelical America, which is his attempt at finding a path
    forward for the religion he loves.

    Moore believes part of the problem is that "almost every part of
    American life is tribalized and factionalized," and that has extended
    to the church.

    "I think if we're going to get past the blood and soil sorts of
    nationalism or all of the other kinds of totalizing cultural
    identities, it's going to require rethinking what the church is," he
    told NPR.
