In \u003cb\u003eThe Homebrewed Christianity Guide to the End Times\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey C. Pugh recounts his own brief sojourn in an apocalyptic cult. Looking back now, as a respected professor of theology, he tackles how Christianity in general, and the evangelical world in particular, have been captivated by the theological innovation known as Dispensationalism that emerged in the nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe embrace of this idea has influenced millions, leading to such cultural phenomena as the \u003cb\u003eLeft Behind\u003c\/b\u003e books and movies, and Christian Zionism. But Pugh argues that the belief in the imminent return of Christ has in fact been harmful to Christian engagement with the world, and he builds this argument on a thorough and occasionally sassy reading of biblical texts and church history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey C.
