We often frame the white Christian nationalism as a problem exclusively of far-right, fundamentalist evangelicalism. What we talk much less about is mainline Protestants and how they have contributed to the rise of Christian nationalism from the 1940s to the present.

I talk with Rev. Dr. Brian Kaylor about the book he co-authored called, Baptizing America: How Mainline Protestants Helped Build Christian Nationalism.

Among the topics we cover are:

  • Defining mainline Protestantism
  • Distinguishing between civil religion and Christian Nationalism
  • Why capitalize the "N" in Christian Nationalism
  • How January 6, 2021 compares with January 6, 2022
  • What can or should unite us as a civic body
