Christian Nationalism May 19 Forum

by Pastor Carol Tomer

The ELCA is committed to the common good – not for the good of Christians first – and to working with and learning from others. An overview of Christian nationalism from a Lutheran perspective is presented in this ELCA resource (We Are Christians Against Christian Nationalism) with background and discussion starters to seed conversations as we face this distortion of our faith and divisive force in our country.⁠ Printouts of the ELCA article will also be available on the counter by the front office window.

Christian nationalism is a topic that is important for us to reflect on, as it is shaping current dynamics across our country. In preparation for our Sunday morning forum on this topic on May 19, I recommend these resources to you:
