Salvation and Service -- Chapter 7. Conformity and Belief -- Chapter 8. Authority in Action -- Chapter 9. The Authority of the Bible -- Chapter 10: The Authority of the Brother -- Chapter 11. Separation and Identity -- Chapter 12. Pure from the World -- Chapter 13. Separated from the Sects -- Chapter 14. Apart from the Apostates -- Chapter 15. An Archetypal Fundamentalism -- Chapter 16. The Brethren and Modernism -- Chapter 17. Fundamentalism and Christianity -- Chapter 18. Religion and Globalisation.

This book gives a personal insight into the hearts and minds of a fundamentalist Christian sect, the Open Brethren. Using Brethren magazine articles, obituaries, and testimonies, Peter Herriot argues that the Brethren constitute a perfect example of a fundamentalism. Their culture is entirely opposed to the beliefs, values, and norms of modernity. As a result, like other fundamentalisms they challenge modern Christianity and impede its efforts to engage with global society.
