The Seven Deadly Sins of White Christian Nationalism

A Call to Action

De: Carter Heyward

Narrado por: Rosemary Benson

Hear the call to overcome today's culture of hate and bring healing and hope into our life together. While right-wing conservatives dare to call themselves Christians as they tear down equality and justice, commit horrific acts of violence, and fan the flames of fascism in America, Carter Heyward issues a call to action for Christians to truly hear God's message of peace and love.

Heyward shows how American Christians have played a major role in building and securing structures of injustice in American life. Rising tides of white supremacy, threats to women's reproductive freedoms and to basic human rights for gender and sexual minorities, the widening divide between rich and poor, and increasing natural disasters and the extinction of Earth's species—all point to a world crying out for God's wisdom.

Followers of Jesus must first call out these ingrained and sinful attitudes for what they are, acknowledging what the culture of white Christian nationalism is doing to our country and our world, and commit ourselves ever more fully to generating justice—love, whoever and wherever we are.

Repetitious

Ths writer is respected by many I know in the US C of E. however the Narrator's tone of voice and attitude seems to be reading to very young inexperienced listeners. Those of us who remember the 1950s - present find that she is telling us about a history we have been aware of all our lilves, and poses more questions than solutions to sines, crimes, dilemma than providing useful actons and answers. In short, this book is too long for my taste. Also her attitude toward men, especially white rich men, is too limited and generic, as though she has not had any positive and long term friendships with men. It hink her lesbianism has limited her life experiences.
