Evidence

Sam agreed to collaborate with me, and our work culminated in Taking America Back for God, published in 2020. While writing the book, along with the many peer-reviewed articles on Christian nationalism we wrote together and with several close colleagues, I became more and more convinced of the detrimental influence Christian nationalism has on multiple aspects of American life. I became even more convinced that Christian nationalism was detrimental to the church. Christian nationalism makes American Christians less Christlike. — Andrew L. Whitehead, American Idolatry, 72
