In God We Trust: The Origins of Christian Nationalism is a comprehensive exploration of the historical, theological, and cultural roots of Christian Nationalism in the United States and beyond.
Author Jimmie R. Hawkins traces the tangled history of faith and politics from ancient civilizations through the founding of the United States, examining how religious identity has been used to shape national narratives, justify oppression, and drive political movements. The book delves into the manifestations of Christian Nationalism across racial and ethnic lines--in White, Black, Hispanic, and Asian American communities--while also analyzing its impact on issues such as abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, gender justice, white supremacy, religious freedom, and militarism. Hawkins critically assesses the roles of churches, clergy, politicians, and the media in perpetuating or challenging Christian Nationalist ideology, and concludes with a call to reject this ideology in favor of the true Christian witness centered on the cross of Jesus Christ.
Drawing on scripture, history, and contemporary voices, In God We Trust challenges readers to confront the dangers of merging religious identity with national destiny. Hawkins advocates for the recovery of a prophetic Christianity that transcends political boundaries, an authentic faith rooted in justice, humility, and love.
