So wrote Paul to the Galatians who demanded the circumcision of gentile converts. Such rigid adherence to the old law prioritized one culture over the universal church.

Though evangelicals emphasize fidelity to the gospel above all else, many have fallen in step with “a different gospel” of Christian nationalism.

Analyzing Scripture, church history, and current events in the United States and Russia, Looper shows how the nation can supplant the church as Christians’ primary allegiance—and why Jesus calls us to a different kind of community.
