Is the link between religion and politics good or bad for our government and faith?
About this episode
The episode explores the implications of the rise of Christian nationalism on democracy and faith in Iowa through discussions with Christian faith leaders and journalist Katherine Stewart.
We've seen a recent rise in Christian nationalism, a powerful political movement. To some it looks like a threat to our democracy, and to others it looks like voting their values. But, what does it mean to Iowa Christian faith leaders and their congregations? We sit down with four of them to find out. But first, we hear from journalist Katherine Stewart about how Christian nationalism evolved and who benefits from it.
