The Distinction is written in response to Dean Inserra's The Unsaved Christian: Reaching Cultural Christianity with the Gospel. That book speaks of the most plentiful field of harvest for soul winners in the American Christian churches. That field is the vast congregation of unsaved "Christians."

While Inserra's book is valuable, it does little to define the difference--the distinction, if you will--between authentic and purely cultural Christians. This book seeks to identify and detail that distinction.
