I’m thoroughly enjoying and learning a lot about Christian Nationalism through this series. Representative Talarico is truly in the trenches in calling out Christian Nationalism for what it is, a political movement using Christ in a perverted theology that is not Christ like. I love the description of Jesus relationship to his people as antithetical of power and Kingship as defined in secular culture. We didn't understand it 2000 years ago and we still don't. Thank you for this.
