The Anti-Gospel of Christian Nationalism

Martin Luther King once said to “always be sure that you struggle with Christian methods and Christian weapons. Never succumb to the temptation of becoming bitter. As you press on for justice, be sure to move with dignity and discipline, using only the weapon of love.” On January 6, 2021, the people who attacked the capitol building were not using Christian weapons—despite flags, banners or symbols they might have touted. In this episode, we address the events of January 6th and confront the misleading notion that Christianity and America are inextricably linked. They are not. Christians have a single allegiance—not to a nation, but to a name: Jesus.
