The Fruits of Nationalism
If the fruit of Christian Nationalism is rotten, what does that say about the roots itself?
We've spent three episodes in the history, development, and political theories of Christian Nationalism, now we go to its current iteration. Join us as we discuss what Christian Nationalism does.
In this episode we speak with Dr. Paul Miller (Georgetown University), Katherine Stewart (op-ed writer for The New York Times, as well as author of several books), Napp Nazworth (Executive Director of American Values Coalition), and Russell Moore (Executive Editor at Christianity Today).

The Reconstruction of Nationalism
The writings and works of Reconstructioninsts and Theonomists of a bygone age would not recognize the modern iteration of Christian Nationalism.
No, today's Christian Nationalism is an entirely new phenomenon without historical precedent. What you see today, then, is a new project. And this new project isn't looking at elections over the next few years, but establishing dominion over the next few centuries.
To discuss this, we're joined by Dr. Michael McVicar (Associate Professor of Religion at Florida State University), Dr. Julie Ingersoll (Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at University of North Florida), Dr. Jerome Copulsky (Research Fellow at Georgetown University), and we interact with ideas from Katherine Stewart's work as well (writer for The New York Times, New Republic, and more).

What happens when biblical patriarchy, christian nationalism, and a theology of authority and submission become the pillars of a movement? Scores of abuse stories in marriages, schools, churches, families, and more.
Though these ideas have filtered throughout the United States for decades, they found a home in Moscow, Idaho, through the ministry and work of Doug Wilson. From there, they have influenced churches across the United States, and across the world.
In this series, you’ll hear from experts on all aspects of these movements, and the stories of abuse from those who survived. Some are Christian, some are not, but one thing they’ve got in common? They’re finally speaking out.
This is their story.
