Awake, not woke : a Christian response to the cult of progressive ideology
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references.

The author asserts that liberal political ideology has long been planned as an intentional destabilization of meaning and American culture that shares characteristics with cults. Mering details the components of a Christian faith-based response and religious restoration.

"The long-simmering crisis that grips our culture has exploded in recent years, leaving us divided and intransigent. Discourse seems futile when we are no longer a people with shared principles or even a shared understanding of reality. What seems obvious to one person is patently absurd to the next. This collapse of meaning is not accidental. It has been plotted and documented for decades, and now presents in its current form as woke ideology. Awake, Not Woke unmasks this ideology by examining its history, major players, premises, and tactics, showing us that "wokeness" at its core is an ideology of rupture. Indeed, it is an ideology with fundamentalist and even cult-like characteristics that is on a collision course with Christianity."- Amazon.com.
