Short of the Glory
Welcome to Short of the Glory! We're just two cousins talkin' trash about televangelism and the like. Join us on our journey to better understand evangelicalism in America: the big names, the big institutions, and the deep pockets.

Join Ellen and Madie for the inaugural episode of ‘Short of the Glory’. We start with the man largely credited for introducing evangelicalism to the mainstream, Billy Graham. We do a deep dive on his background and cover how he began to lay the groundwork for the much more terrible evangelical and televangelist leaders of the future. Turns out he is a bad person, probably. Hopefully our family still loves us after this one.
