The nature of Taylor's evangelicalism makes a contribution to the recent debates regarding the origins of evangelicalism. Its central characteristics, underlying tendencies and shaping influence of certain Enlightenment values reflect that which was distinct about evangelicalism as a primarily eighteenth-century phenomenon.
