While right-wing conservatives dare to call themselves Christians as they tear down equality and justice, commit horrible acts of violence, and fan the flames of fascism in America, Carter Heyward issues a call to action for Christians to truly hear God's message of peace and love. This book attempts to show ways in which, through our highly privatized theologies and personal spiritualities, we American Christians have played a major role in building and securing structures of injustice in American life. Rising tides of white supremacy, threats to women's reproductive freedoms and to basic human rights for gender and sexual minorities, the widening divide between rich and poor, and increasing natural disasters and the extinction of Earth's species all point to a world crying out for God's wisdom. To move forward as followers of Jesus, we must first call out these ingrained cultural attitudes for what they are-the seven deadly sins of white Christian nationalism. We must commit ourselves to building a more perfect union in small personal ways and in large public acknowledgment of what the culture of white Christian nationalism is doing to our country and world"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Christians, White. 650 0 $a White nationalism. 650 0 $a Christian conservatism $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Religious right. 650 0 $a Christianity and politics. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Heyward, Carter. $t Seven deadly sins of white Christian nationalism $d Lanham : Rowman & Littlefield, 2022 $z 9781538167908 $w (DLC) 2022011755 941 $a 1 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20221111010427.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=83B07A7C618E11EDBAF355CF54ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
