How Good Christians Get Pulled Into Christian Nationalism with April Ajoy

Faith is powerful because it shapes our identity, provides a place to belong and gives us a true sense of purpose. But what happens when our beliefs become than something we choose? Can it still be called faith if it’s connected to an expectation of how we should think, speak, vote and interpret scripture?

This episode does not shame, condemn or demonize any believer who has the best intention to follow after Christ with the model they’ve been given. It’s an honest conversation with April Ajoy on the inner workings of Christian Nationalism as a system that is discipling people into a very particular belief as it infiltrates our churches, political arenas and even international relations. The hope is that, through April’s experience, people who are unaware of their participation in this type of high-control religion will begin to see the damage being caused so they can turn back to the way of Jesus. Because grace exists for all of us, even when we change our mind.
