Christian America and the Kingdom of God: White Christian Nationalism from the Puritans Through January 6, 2021
No Customer Reviews
The myth of a Christian America fuels a powerful political force sure of its moral superiority and intent on implementing a Christian nationalist agenda. Richard T. Hughes and Christina Littlefield draw on discussions of civil religion and forms of nationalism to explore the complex legal and cultural arguments for a Christian America. The authors also provide an in-depth examination of the Bible's words on the "chosen nation" and "kingdom of God" that Christian nationalists quote to support the idea of the US as a Christian nation.
A timely new edition of the acclaimed work, Christian America and the Kingdom of God spotlights how the centuries-long pursuit of a Christian America has bred an aggressive white Christian nationalism that twists faith, unleashes unchristian behavior, and threatens the nation.
