In July of 1926, the pastor of the largest Protestant church in America – in fact, the nation’s first such megachurch – shot an unarmed man to death in his church office after an argument over a sermon. The preacher, who already by then had a well-deserved notorious reputation, was indicted for murder and faced the death penalty. The story was page-one news across the country. In fact, it may be the most famous story and courtroom drama you have never heard.
Using more than 6,000 pages of newspaper articles, court records, and a variety of other published works, author and minister David Stokes vividly recreates the life of the fundamentalist movement’s most controversial figure.
