Russel Moore’s tribute to Wendell Berry here is lovely.

I was at a medical conference at some mega church — and I do mean mega — in Louisville 6 or 7 years ago. This church had an enormous lobby, complete with its own giant escalator and substantial bookstore. I remember one of lecturers (half?) joking that if you wanted to know what was wrong with the church today, just go down to the bookstore in the lobby. “One of the best living writers lives 50 miles from here and there isn’t one of his books on the shelves.” He added that he’d asked the people who ran it about Wendell Berry. They said they’d never heard of him.
