Faith & Democracy: Confronting White Christian Nationalism (The Christian Century)

September 19 @ 6:00 pm 8:30 pm

What does a Christianity look like that is not deeply tied to racial injustice and White Christian nationalism, forces captured in the images of the January 6, 2021 insurrection? With a national election just around the corner, how might Christians live into a richer narrative that underscores the nonviolent legacy of Jesus?

Join us for an intimate, online conversation with three renowned thought leaders on the current state of Christianity in the US. Our guests Gary DorrienObery Hendricks, and Grace Ji-Sun Kim are internationally known for their insights on the Christian faith and the role that it can play for those committed to democracy, peace, and social justice. (Follow the links or see below for additional information about our guest panelists.) The Christian Century‘s editor/publisher Peter W. Marty will serve as moderator. 

Sponsored by the Christian Century and the D.L. Dykes, Jr. Foundation, this conversation will explore the challenges that the growing presence of White Christian nationalism poses to congregations and people of faith and conscience.
