Christian Nationalism is Not Good News | Rev. Jonathan Coppedge-Henley

Christian Nationalism is Not Good News | Rev. Jonathan Coppedge-Henley30 Sept30 min

<p>This month, Marianne sits down with Rev. Jonathan Coppedge-Henley, pastor of Woodlawn Community Church, a United Methodist congregation in Charlotte. Together they take a hard look at Christian nationalism: where it comes from, why it&#39;s a misunderstanding of the gospel, and how it damages the Church&#39;s witness to the world. Drawing on Scripture from Samuel to Pentecost, they talk about the difference between earthly power and God&#39;s power, and how congregations can sing a better song in a divided time. It&#39;s a conversation about faith, power, and what it means to be a church that bears witness to God&#39;s love for everyone.</p>
