The Biggest Threat to America: Christian Nationalism
September 16 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
“White Christian nationalism is the biggest threat to American society in this turbulent moment in our history” — so says The Center for American Progress in a recent survey. A direct result of white supremacy and with deep roots in American popular religion, Christian Nationalism has developed rapidly in recent years — and it now imperils individual liberty, threatens social harmony, and jeopardizes religious liberty.
To supplement the showing of the film, Bad Faith (Images, Sept. 23, 7pm) the Congo Church is conducting open discussions of the primary ideas fueling Christian nationalism to give our community one way to reflect on its meaning for us, for our region, for the wider world.
Join us for a discussion of The Contexts of Christian Nationalism
Where does white Christian nationalism come from? What are its guiding commitments? How does it make promises and persuade people to join it? Who thinks it is a good idea and why are they committed to using it as a basis for public policy?
