Resources
Looking to create new conversations about Christian nationalism? Want to dive deeper on this topic with people in your community?
Here are some resources for you to use and share with others:
BOOK
How to End Christian Nationalism
Released by Broadleaf Books on October 22, 2024, this book has “Steps” instead of “Chapters,” leading you through naming the threat, grounding yourself, denouncing violence, and more. The end of each “step” contains Scripture and a short paragraph called “Reflect and Act” with ideas on putting what you read into practice. A companion discussion guide will be available in the future.
3-SESSION STUDY
This three-lesson curriculum informs a deeper dive into the dangers of Christian nationalism, and it is designed for churches and other small discussion groups. It includes Scripture, activities, and corresponding facilitator’s guide for all three lessons. It also includes PowerPoint presentations with embedded video clips, which are from a webinar in January 2021 featuring Bishop Elizabeth Eaton, Bishop Michael Curry, Dr. Andrew Whitehead, and Amanda Tyler.
Responding to Christian Nationalism
PODCAST SERIES & DISCUSSION GUIDE
The Dangers of Christian Nationalism
In 2019, the BJC Podcast presented a 10-episode series on the dangers of Christian nationalism, hosted by Amanda Tyler. The episodes provide a deeper dive into the topic, and we have a discussion guide for those interested in using the 10 podcasts in a group setting. Guests on the series include Rev. Dr. Walter Brueggemann (theological view of Christian nationalism), Dr. Steven Green (a Christian nation?), Rabbi David Saperstein (religious freedom/church-state law), and more.
CHURCH TOOLKIT
Host a Community Meeting
Looking to make an impact in your area? We invite your church to host a community meeting about the dangers of Christian nationalism. We have a 5-step guide with resources you can use to make the meeting fit your community or congregation, including graphics for promotion, a sample meeting agenda, activities to foster discussion and interaction, and action steps for the future.
WEBINAR AND DISCUSSION GUIDE
How Racism Undergirds Christian Nationalism
This discussion guide is designed to be used alongside the July 2021 Christians Against Christian Nationalism webinar titled “White Christian Nationalism: How Racism Undergirds Christian Nationalism,” which featured a conversation with Dr. Jemar Tisby and Dr. Robert P. Jones. The guide contains 12 discussion questions that can be used in a group setting to facilitate conversation or for personal reflection.
FAQs and in-depth conversations
VIDEOS AND WEBINARS
Looking for a long-form conversation or short videos with answers to some frequently asked questions? We have a page of videos and webinars available on the Christians Against Christian Nationalism website, covering a wide range of topics.
