Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A harrowing look at a growing and in many ways unaccountable force in American political life.

But their churches have also never been more prone to abuse and hurt. Gods of the Smoke Machine goes inside Americas largest churches to uncover the hidden stories of trauma happening within our most powerful Christian institutions and meet the survivors, attorneys, and advocates fighting for accountability. It is a cloaked world of sex, power, politics, and money, but also a human story of pain, betrayal, and resilience.Combining personal storytelling and original reporting, author Scott Latta pulls back the curtain on a dangerously insular institution of more than seventeen hundred churches nationwide that is answerable to almost no outside accountability.Even those who have never set foot in a church can feel the implications of this societal shift.

For decades, they have crafted their own laws even as they fought to influence ours.Gods of the Smoke Machine tells a sweeping story of those who commoditized our search for meaning into a machine that preserves privilege, profit, and power at the cost of those it wounds along the way.
