In Post-Rapture Radio, our faithful narrator finds a mysterious box containing the sermons and journal entries of a genuine, unvarnished American character of Reverend Richard Lamblove. The little-known Lamblove tried, and failed, to revolutionize contemporary Christian culture. As his journal entries, cereal box scribblings, and random notes written on paper scraps reveal, Lamblove sees contemporary culture as shallow, overly individualistic, and consumed with the kind of status measured by money, power and celebrity. And American Evangelicalism, which has been integrated into the culture as a whole, has similar failings. Reverend Lamblove varnished without a trace, but Russell Rathbun has 'compiled' his papers into a compelling critique of contemporary faith an antidote to faith-as-usual and a wakeup call for Christians to genuinely respond to the gospel.
