About this listen

Episode one traces Christian nationalism's roots from colonial America through modern political mobilization. Challenging the myth of America's Christian founding, it examines what the founders actually said about church-state separation and how the Second Great Awakening, Manifest Destiny, and Civil War shaped religious nationalism. The episode explores twentieth-century developments including the Cold War's conflation of Christianity with Americanism and the Religious Right's emergence through figures like Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. It unpacks theological frameworks including Dominionism, Reconstructionism, and competing end-times beliefs, revealing how these differ from mainstream Christianity. The episode concludes by examining critical historical moments that fused religious and political identity into today's powerful movement.
