”What is Christian Nationalism and Why is it Dangerous?”

Episode 42

What is Christian Nationalism?

“Patriotism is the love of country…It is different from nationalism which is an argument which is how to define our country. We are thankful for the United States as a country, as a land… as a Christians we can and should love the United States. Which also means working to improve our Country by holding it up for critique and working for justice when it errs. Christian Nationalism is the belief that the American Nation is defined by Christianity and that the government should take active steps to keep it that way…” - Christianity Today
