You’re invited!

Join us for a live, virtual recording of an interview with investigative journalist and best-selling author Michael Blanding about his new book, The Gospel According to Hobby Lobby: Inside a Billionaire Family’s Quest to Craft a Christian Nation.

The book is a revelatory account of how the family behind Hobby Lobby rose to political prominence and used their influence—and fortune—to push a radical religious agenda. They have propped up evangelical education through donations money and land; funneled millions of dollars to organizations working to overturn Roe v. Wade and to undermine LGBTQ rights; successfully fought a Supreme Court case to deny employees insurance coverage for contraception; and acquired looted, stolen, and forged artifacts from the Middle East to stock their multimillion-dollar Museum of the Bible.

In a riveting exposé, Blanding traces the pivotal role the Green family has played in funding and empowering America’s dangerous, ascendant Christian nationalist movement.

Michael will be at Craft Industry Alliance headquarters in conversation with Abby Glassenberg. We’re thrilled to be inviting you to join us virtually on Zoom for this live recording on the book’s launch day!
