Chris and I won’t be able to attend this event, but we highly encourage others to sign up and go, if you’re able. Samuel Perry, David R. Brockman (@drdrbrockman.bsky.social) 🇺🇦 and Andrew Whitehead - American Idols Podcast will all be presenting. This is an incredible group of experts who study and write about Christian nationalism.

My newsletter this Sunday features a wonderful piece by Andrew Whitehead - American Idols Podcast, who authored the book “American Idolatry: How Christian Nationalism Betrays The Gospel and Threatens the Church.” I deeply appreciate Andrew’s work and I know you will too.

“When Do Voters Reward Overtly Religious Appeals?” w/ Abraham Aldama is forthcoming in Journal of Politics @[email protected]! Building on Bethany Albertson Paul Djupe Andrew Whitehead - American Idols Podcast Perry Campbell +, we examine when politicians might use *overtly* religious rhetoric instead of cloaked appeals

My book, 𝑀𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑎 , is still Amazon’s #1 new release in the nationalism category.

Available for preorder—releases June 4.

It’s not too late to join the launch team, which comes with exclusive content and access to a digital copy of the book.

The world is a better place with Samuel Perry in it. He deserves all the flowers and more.

Well-deserved recognition of an incredible scholar!

It was such an honor to endorse JESUS AND THE POWERS by the inimitable N.T. Wright & Michael F. Bird. It’s a book for progressives & conservatives, for American Christians & Chrs outside America. It will make you think & maybe make you uncomfortable. (Would be a great book club choice.)

Today, Muslims throughout the world celebrate the end of Ramadan with a festival called Eid al-Fitr, for which the traditional greeting is 'Eid Mubarak.'

In 2017, Pew Research Religion found that ~80% of Muslim Americans fast during Ramadan, so today is a joyous celebration for many!

This book does an excellent job of summarizing trends in American Christianity. Goes great with Stamped From the Beginning (Kendi), The Making of Biblical Womanhood (Barr), Jesus and John Wayne (du Mez), Celebrities for Jesus (Beaty), & The History of White People (Painter).

'Kaylor and Underwood provide a compelling narrative. ... Anyone interested in confronting and opposing Christian Nationalism must read this book.'
—Dr. Andrew Whitehead - American Idols Podcast, author of 'American Idolatry.'

I was so glad they shared their story on my American Idols podcast!

Trump sells a Bible in honor of Holy Week, new data on Christian Nationalism and the top secret white men only group trying to take back America for God.

I’m compiling a list of books that have been fairly direct Christian responses to Trumpism/christian nationalism/politics in the last eight years. There’s mine, of course:
