Christian Nationalism — Good or Bad?
This is simply a storehouse of some of the resources the elders used in preparation for our church’s Spring ‘24 “Honest Questions” GROW seminar. These resources speak to the questions/topics asked by members of Grace Church. The Grace Church elders do not endorse the views of everything contained in these resources.
I do not recommend deep diving into this theme. The church's mission is not the same as the mission of individual nation-states (Matt. 28:18-20). For any who desire a primer on this theme from people who have interacted with the primary views/sources, I recommend the following items. I’ve added additional resources below the recommended resources.
