Evangelical Christianity in the United States: faith or marketing? Church or business?

A journey into the world of evangelical Christianity in the United States: faith or marketing? Church or business?

Evangelical Christianity is one of the most important social movements in the United States. It is a growing subculture with a powerful influence and a seven-billion-dollar industry that has linked faith to marketing, salvation to personal success and the Church to business. But the implications of this phenomenon reach far beyond the market.
 
Why is there a growing polarization between the right and left in the United States? Why are millions of Americans impatiently awaiting the end of the world? How is spirituality expressed through the "American dream"? These are some of the issues explored in American Jesus, with accounts from a wide range of individuals representative of the complex social fabric of the United States.
 
The documentary looks at some of the most extreme and eyebrow-raising evangelical churches and congregations, showing the fascinating diverse ways that people express their faith in many places across the country.
