But then, in a  cheerless motel west of New Orleans, Jimmy's life and ministry took a  calamitous turn. This the tale of the rise of two intimately linked  colossi of the American century: Pentecostalism, the fastest growing  religious movement in the world, and its \"evil twin\", Rock 'n' Roll. A  major theme of the book is how the religious ecstasy of Pentecostalism -  the rousing music, the speaking in tongues, the reception of the Spirit  - combined with its severe sexual repression leads to the kind of  furtive acting out that brought down not only Jimmy Swaggart but also  other evangelists. It is the story, too, of the rapid rise of the  Religious Right, with its competing personalities and ideologies. In the  end, the author sees Jimmy as a victim - like many others - of a  primitive faith colliding with the forces of the late 20th century fame.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781855393608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Network Continuum Education","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40597678325966,"sku":"9781855393608","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781855393608","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
