Christian Nationalism: The Cross and The Flag

Posted on October 19, 2024 by David E Smith

What is our relationship with government, and when do we cross the line and begin to promote politics rather than the Gospel? In this thought-provoking and timely forty-minute lecture delivered onsite in Nuremberg, Dr. Erwin Lutzer explores the stadium where Hitler’s rallies were held as well as the courtroom where Nazi war criminals were tried. He discusses topics such as citizenship, national borders, morality, and political polarization.

Evangelize or Else: Defending Christian Culture

Posted on February 5, 2024 by Alyssa Sonnenburg

Would you like a government that reflects your Christian beliefs? If so then congratulations, you’re a threat to democracy! Or so says Rob Reiner, who produced a movie meant to alarm you about Christian nationalism, He even tweeted that Christian nationalism is “a danger to Christianity itself.” His message, and his movie, joins an already noisy crowd just dying to tell you that applying Christianity to politics is wrong.

Russia, China, Canada, and a Reminder of Why So Many of Voted for Trump

Posted on February 22, 2022 by David E Smith

In the aftermath of the events of January 6, 2021, the narrative is becoming more and more fixed. Simply stated, it claims that the vast majority of Americans who voted for Trump were gun-waving, white supremacist, insurrectionist, Christian nationalists, who need to be marginalized, if not purged from society. For many reasons, we need to continue to challenge that narrative. And recent world events involving Russia, China, and Canada provide a perfect opportunity to push back against that misleading and caricatured narrative.

PODCAST: Were the Capitol Rioters Christians?

Posted on January 29, 2021 by Benjamin D. Smith

Elana Schor wrote an unhelpful article titled “Christianity on Display at the Capitol Riot Sparks New Debate” for the Associated Press (AP) on Thursday.
