  • David French Asks: What the Heck Is a Christian Nationalist? (CLASSIC)

    David French Asks: What the Heck Is a Christian Nationalist? (CLASSIC)
    Oct 9 2025

    How Thin Is the Line Between Patriotism and Nationalism?

    Curtis Chang and David French take a hard look at the rise of Christian nationalism and its growing influence on American faith and politics. They unpack how this ideology blurs the line between patriotism and nationalism, reshaping evangelical identity and challenging both biblical and constitutional values. Drawing from history and theology—from January 6th to modern evangelical movements—they reveal how love of country can be redeemed from the distortions of fear and power. Listeners are invited to reflect on what true patriotism looks like for followers of Jesus in a divided America.

A very inspirational message much needed in todays world. Worth a listen. Transition time with David rotating off but confident that Curtis and guests will be able to pass the baton.
