A big announcement about the future of the podcast.

In this episode we’re talking with Andrew Whitehead about his new book, American Idolatry: How Christian Nationalism Betrays the Gospel and Threatens the Church. We talk about growing up Evangelical, coming to terms with church history, the current state of Christian nationalism, and a bit about Greg Boyd, with whom we all have a bit of history.

Christian Nationalism is in a meaningful sense a counter-revolution against the ascendancy of secular democracy. What is secularism, and why does it threaten Christian Nationalists in a way it doesn't threaten other forms of Christian expression? In this episode we continue our discussion of the Statement on Christian Nationalism, focusing on its formulation of state power.
