124. Is America A Christian Nation?
Manage episode 367744180 series 2820285
How can a land of so many religions be considered "Christian?" Was America ever a Christian nation? If so, what has changed?
In today’s episode, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek look at the history of America and its founders to try to decipher whether or not America was ever a Christian nation. From there, we look at popular laws and worldviews held by Americans and compare them to Scripture to discern whether or not America is a Christian nation in 2023.
