Welcome to a new season on Scripture in Black and White. Where we examining the hard topics through a biblical lens, bringing multiple perspectives, and asking what it means to follow Jesus in a politically divided world.
This first episode of this new series focuses on Christian Nationalism. 
Christian nationalism ignites debate across pulpits and podcasts. But what does the term actually mean? In this conversation, Anthony Walker and Daniel McCoy bring two trusted voices into the room, David Young, academic dean at RENEW University and scholar in residence at renew.org, and Paul Huyghebaert, lead minister at Southside Christian Church in Fort Pierce, Florida. They unpack what's really at stake.
What emerges is nuanced, articulate, and honest. They disagree on the method but share a conviction: Christian principles are best for any nation. The real question is how we get there, and whether the church loses its soul in the process.
