In Soul by Soul: The Evangelical Mission to Spread the Gospel to Muslims, journalist Adriana Carranca tells the story of American evangelicals’ mobilization to proclaim Christianity “to the ends of the Earth,” a movement that triumphed in the Global South, challenged the Vatican, and then turned east after 9/11 to spread the Gospel among Muslims.

One of the most difficult security challenges of the post–Cold War era has been stabilizing failing states in an era of irregular warfare.
