But before we finish this series and move on, I have one more topic to cover: Christian nationalism.

American Christianity Is Broken 2: Poor Leadership 8:46

4y ago8:46

Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People? 13:37

Liberal or Conservative 15:38

4y ago15:38

15:38

The whole idea of a “right path through life” is enormous and complicated. Is there a right path? How would I know if and when I found it? What would a right path even look like anyway? These are really important questions, and they will take a lot of time to unpack. And, we’ll get to them. But, how about instead of trying to get there in a single …
