     Evangelicals largely don't care about the Protestant Reformation. They grew out of that milieu, but they simply do not regard it as relevant. Hard to se why they would either, when their theology is so different to that of the leading reformers.

My immediate reaction to seeing this was that this strikes me as the product of a generation of youth pastors raised on C. S. Lewis.

     Probably a factor, but a lot of the churches where people will identify themselves as "just Christians" would have little respect for an Anglican like Lewis.
