In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of the All Saints Online Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Brad Onishi, a religious scholar, author, and co-host of the acclaimed Straight White American Jesus podcast.

Brad joins us to discuss the pressing issue of Christian Nationalism in America, exploring its history, its impact on the church, and why this is not just a political issue, but a deeply important conversation for all Christians.   Brad shares his personal journey from growing up in a non-religious home to becoming a church leader, and how his studies at Oxford led him to deconstruct his faith and dedicate his life to understanding the complex intersections of religion, politics, and culture.

In our conversation, we dive deep into how Christian nationalism has shaped the American church and what can be done to reclaim faith from the clutches of extremism.   This episode also serves as a preview for Brad's upcoming event in Omaha on September 5th at St. Andrew's United Methodist Church, titled "Faith Over Fear: Reclaiming Our Faith from White Christian Nationalism." Tickets are free but limited—register now to secure your spot, and stay tuned for the online release of the event video. See the link below to secure your spot!  

Whether you're a long-time listener or new to our podcast, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the future of the church and the role of faith in America today.   Thank you for listening to this crucial conversation. Remember, we are more than a podcast—we are a community where all are welcome. See you in the next episode!
