On assumed evangelicalism

This piece on "assumed evangelicalism" is getting a fair amount of attention on Christian blogs recently. The author defines the term:

Assumed evangelicalism believes and signs up to the gospel. It certainly does not deny the gospel. But in terms of priorities, focus, and direction, assumed evangelicalism begins to give gradually increasing energy to concerns other than the gospel and key evangelical distinctives, to gradually elevate secondary issues to a primary level, to be increasingly worried about how it is perceived by others and to allow itself to be increasingly influenced both in content and method by the prevailing culture of the day.

Is the evangelical church falling into these traps? The article makes a lot of very challenging assertions about what we call "evangelical Christianity." Read the piece and share your thoughts!
