Ep. 229 – Weaponized Patriotism: The Fall of National Pride – With Jonathan Howes & Gunnar Canan

Episode Synopsis:

Is nationalism an innocent expression of patriotic valor, or has blind submission to political leanings affected not just society at large, but the body of Christ in particular?


We talk about this and much more, including:

  • How does the allure of patriotism blind us to the full scope of reality?
  • What are the connections between Zionism and Christian Nationalism?
  • How does misplaced faith rob us of our spiritual inheritance?
  • Why do we farm out personal responsibility to political candidates?
  • How has voting been weaponized against the nuclear family?
