There's an unsettling theme in recent religion news. It's not that U.S. Christians no longer celebrate Easter but that the evangelical spirit -- defined as a drive to share this "good news" -- seems to be waning. Christians, it would appear, are slacking on the job and their friends' and families'' souls are on the line, church leaders say.
