Happy Hour 290: Understanding Christian Nationalism, With Rev. Mara Richards Bim

At a moment when the Texas Republican Party is directly writing the destruction of the separation of church and state into their party platform, and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is announcing that Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico is "going to hell" because of his progressive Christian leanings, the current political conflict in Texas could rightly be defined as the Christian Nationalists against...well, against the rest of us.Joining us to discuss this intensifying divide and to examine point by point how to counter your MAGA uncle's critiques of James Talarico's spiritual positions is the Reverend Mara Richards Bim, Justice & Advocacy Fellow at Royal Lane Baptist Church in Dallas.
