At age 19, Kevin Roose left the comfort of Brown University to go undercover into Liberty University, a school founded by the late (and famously intolerant) Rev. Jerry Falwell. The Unlikely Disciple: A Sinner’s Semester at America’s Holiest University details Roose’s experience as a Liberty student and his attempts to learn about the oft-ridiculed but little-studied, subculture of Christian evangelism. His humanizing depictions of Liberty students address stereotypes of conservative Christians and result in a refreshing book about tolerance and acceptance.
