It is bold, clear, and very well-researched."—John MacArthur"Some will quibble over details, but no one should miss the powerful warning in this book. We face a gathering storm, as Winston Churchill warned a century ago, but this time the enemy is inside as well as outside the gates. Every convinced and unashamed Evangelical should read, ponder, and pray over this important book."—Os GuinnessHow deeply have leftist billionaires infiltrated Americas churchesIn Shepherds for Sale, Megan Basham of the Daily Wire documents how progressive powerbrokers —from George Soros, to the founder of eBay, to former members of the Obama administration— set out to change the American church. Their goal: to co-opt evangelicals for political purposes. She exposes:· The left-wing billionaires, foundations, and think tanks that deliberately target Christian media, universities, megachurches, nonprofits, and even entire denominations· The celebrity megachurch pastor who secretly encouraged a group of pastors to change their views on sexuality· The revered Presbyterian theologian who backed a congregation rebelling against his own denominationThese are just a glimpse into the compromises and astroturf campaigns Basham uncovers. Many evangelical leaders are pushing their members to "whisper" about sexual sins, reconsider the importance of abortion, lament the effects of climate change, and repent of "perpetuating systemic racism." And in exchange for toeing a left-wing line, many of those church leaders and institutions have received cash, career jumps, prestige, and praise. Basham brings the receipts, and names names.A rigorously reported exposé, Shepherds for Sale is a warning of what happens when the church trusts the worlds wisdom instead of Scripture.

Review "This may just be the single most important book on modern Evangelicalism in recent years. It is bold, clear, and very well-researched." -- John MacArthur, Pastor of Grace Community Church, and Chancellor of the Masters University and SeminaryMegan Basham is an indispensable voice in a chaotic time. Shepherds for Sale is a clarion call for churches to return to the faith of their ancestors --and to reinvigorate our republic by reinfusing it with eternal truths. -- Ben Shapiro, host of The Ben Shapiro Show, #1 New York Times bestselling author, and co-founder of The Daily WireAnybody paying attention to the current state of the culture can see that things are in disarray. And many have wondered where Evangelical elites have been. Well, Megan Basham has the answer. She reveals that many of them have served as puppets and pawns of the enemies of the Gospel, and she provides receipts! This book is riveting, and, at times, difficult to read because of the deeds it uncovers. But we must read it. And those exposed within its pages must give an account. -- Voddie Baucham, bestselling author of Fault Lines and dean of the School of Divinity at African Christian University in Lusaka, ZambiaOver the past several decades, the political left has taken a long march through Americas most important institutions. While the political takeover of the media, universities, and the bureaucracy has been examined by many, the coordinated takeover attempt of Evangelical Christianity is one of the lefts most insidious and least-discussed schemes. With her keen journalistic eye, rigorous investigatory skills, and riveting storytelling, Basham is finally dragging this plot out into the light, exposing how corrupted and vainglorious leaders tricked Evangelicals into betraying their doctrines to help accomplish left-wing political goals. -- Mollie Hemingway, bestselling author of Rigged, Fox News contributor, and editor-in-chief of The FederalistShepherds for Sale offers an urgent wake-up call for all faithful Christians, exposing Big Evas programs and players, sugar daddies, and slogans, which are selling out faithful Christianity for cultural capital. Megan Basham puts together the pieces of this Devils bargain and exposes how the mighty have fallen. With brave reporting and translucent writing, she reveals that some of our most trusted ministry leaders have proven to be liars and charlatans, bought by the worlds filthy lucre and flattery. Its not too late to repent and believe in the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and drive out the wolves. -- Rosaria Butterfield, bestselling author of Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian AgeShepherds for Sale is a devastating book. Through careful research and lucid writing, Megan Basham exposes the scams that have been foisted on Evangelicals by leftists, and shows how pastors, seminary leaders, professors, theologians, and Southern Baptist Convention presidents are complicit. If such leaders have any integrity at all, they will confess of their sins, resign their positions, and resolve to live out their days in quietness and peace. Anything less will only further multiply the harm they have done and dishonor the Lord whom they profess to love. Every Evangelical--especially every Southern Baptist--needs to read this book. -- Tom Ascol, President of Founders Ministries and The Institute of Public TheologyThere is literally no one in the world more qualified than Megan Basham to write about how the left has infiltrated the Evangelical church in America, nor is there a single subject more centrally connected to the myriad evils rising around us. -- Eric Metaxas, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Bonhoeffer and Letter to The American ChurchFinally, a courageous Christian conservative has done a deep dive into the lefts insidious infiltration into the church. Megan Bashams Shepherds for Sale meticulously traces the sordid money trail, and highlights the tactics these secular forces have employed in their systematic assault on biblical truth within the church and among Evangelicals, including co-opting former conservative Evangelicals to do their bidding. This important book is a long overdue call for the church to stand firm in the Gospel and expel false teachings that dilute Scripture to please man rather than God. -- David Limbaugh, lawyer, political commentator, and New York Times bestselling author of Jesus on TrialThere are few people whose work has been more integral to my own the last few years than Megan Bashams. Her reporting on the infiltration of the church has been crucial, which is why Ive amplified it whenever I could. -- Steve Deace, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Faucian Bargian and Blaze talk show host."Megan Basham exposes and explains how some evangelical leaders are failing to affirm and defend with clarity what Scripture teaches about issues such as LGBTQ, abortion, abuse, and critical race theory. She also reveals how some wealthy secular progressives are targeting evangelicals with evil ideologies disguised as love for neighbor. But its not loving, she argues, to minimize or overturn offensive parts of Scripture. I pray that Megans book will embolden Christians to destroy arguments that keep people from knowing God and to take every rebellious thought captive to obey Christ the King. This book can help you recognize some ways you may have erred (even with good intentions) or some ways you have been misled so that you can walk in the truth." -- Andy Naselli, professor of systematic theology and New Testament for Bethlehem College and Seminary in Minneapolis and one of the pastors of The North Church Details ISBN0063413442 Author Megan Basham Publisher HarperCollins Publishers Inc Year 2024 ISBN-13 9780063413443 Format Hardcover Publication Date 2024-07-30 Country of Publication United States Audience General US Release Date 2024-07-30 Imprint HarperCollins Place of Publication New York, NY NZ Release Date 2024-10-29 AU Release Date 2024-10-29 Pages 352 Subtitle How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda Imprint US Broadside Books Publisher US HarperCollins DEWEY 277.3083 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
