On Monday, less than a month before a pivotal presidential election, a panel convened by Union Presbyterian Seminary’s Center for Social Justice and Reconciliation took on the issue of Christian nationalism at home.
During a recent installment of “A Matter of Faith: A Presby Podcast,” hosts Simon Doong and the Rev. Lee Catoe asked pastor and author the Rev. Dr. Brian Kaylor to talk about how mainline Protestants have helped build Christian nationalism. Listen to their hour-long conversation here.
Dr. Anne Nelson and the Rev. Dr. Alvin O’Neal Jackson poured passion and scholarly analysis into a workshop at last week’s Ecumenical Advocacy Days 2024 Spring Summit called “God and Country: The Rise of Christian Nationalism.”
The Rev. Jimmie Hawkins, the PC(USA)’s advocacy director, recently told the Synod School gathered at Buena Vista University what Presbyterians believe.
Although there has been much talk in recent years about Christian nationalism, especially surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021 attack at the U.S. Capitol Building, it’s far from a new concept, the Rev. Jimmie Hawkins noted during an online conversation on Wednesday.
