E3: Nice Christian Men, Confused Politics, and Letting God Keep His Own Promises

from Prayers from the Middle · host Brianna Wasson

It's Episode 3, and Bria dips her toe into the tricky waters of Christian Nationalism. She talks about the line between love and idolatry and what happens when we try to make America the Kingdom of God. She's been reading through Genesis and keeps seeing this thing we do where we try to keep God’s promises for Him. Where we step in, take over, and try to control what only He can. And lately, she's been wondering if that’s what we’ve done in the American church. If you’re deconstructing, if you’re exhausted, if you’re trying to find Jesus in all of this—I hope you feel safe here. The three books I mentioned are: Jesus and John Wayne by Kristin Kobes DuMez, The Epic of Eden by Sandra L. Richter and Better Ways to Read the Bible by Zach W. Lambert
