For some Americans, holidays like Memorial Day and Independence Day inspire feelings of pride and patriotism. For others they are reminders of this country’s past and present racial inequities and social injustices. In this episode, we grapple with how Christians should relate to their country in light of such feelings. Should we pledge allegiance to a country at all? Or should our allegiance be reserved for Christ’s kingdom only? Is there a difference between Christian patriotism and Christian nationalism? And if so, how do you define the line between the two? We don’t all come to the table with the same experiences, and we don’t all leave having come to the same conclusion. But we are committed to coming to the table and hearing each other’s perspective with open hearts and open ears.
