1. Just gonna post a few pieces I wrote on Christian nationalism as well as the connection between evangelicals and Israel.
Why? OH YOU KNOW NO REASON IN PARTICULAR. thinkprogress.org/trumps-christi…
2. Don’t know what dispensationalism is?
Well you might want to brush up because apparently it’s SUPER RELEVANT right about now. thinkprogress.org/how-the-americ…
3. Does this kind of stuff connect to the decision to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, particularly who SPOKE at the ceremony cementing its move?
WHY YES, YES IT DOES. thinkprogress.org/trumps-impendi…
4. Worth noting that both American Jews AND Middle Eastern Christians — the latter of which was touted as a priority for the Trump administration — expressed a LOT of reservations or even outright opposition to that embassy move. religionnews.com/2018/01/08/is-…
5. Oh and when you throw in the Charismatic Christian element here the rabbit hole goes DEEP on Christian nationalism and Israel. religionnews.com/2018/12/10/at-…
6. Oh and FYI here’s some of the emerging data on Christian nationalism as a driver at the polls.
(And yo @ndrewwhitehead if y’all have relevant data/polling on how this intersects with Israel stuff here that might be useful right about now.) thinkprogress.org/christian-nati…
7. And finally my @RNS colleague @NotoriousTIB has some equally relevant content on this subject from her time at Vox: vox.com/identities/201…
