Kristin, thank you for your commitment to this big work in the midst of everything else you have on your plate. There's also a very good movement growing here in Nashville amongst the music community (apart from what the Frenchs and Russell are doing). Happy to share more specifics. Hit me up at charliepeacockmusic at icloud dot com Peace to you.
Not sure how it can be accomplished, but would love to see resources that we can easily share to challenge the dangerous marketing of complementarianism/biblical patriarchy gender role theologies to evangelical and Christian nationalist networks/and into political venues. You know so well, its astounding impact on women and girls. This might include egalitarian scholarship/theological resources to counter the "biblical" patriarchal "script" so common in those networks. So grateful for all your tremendous work on all of this, and how you do so with such grace and professionalism.
Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) have every right to say what they like about Israel and the genocide of Palestinians as elected members of the US House of Representatives; they never took an oath to serve Israel . . .
I voted for Ron Desantis (R-FL) to be governor of Florida, not ambassador to Israel.
The recently ousted Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Congressman Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who took at least a dozen votes to get elected speaker, traveled to Israel immediately upon his election, declaring to the Israeli Knesset that the USA is steadfastly committed to supporting Ukraine in their war against Russia . . .
Was he running for speaker of the Israeli Knesset too?
Following his ouster . . . McCarthy (R-CA) traveled abroad again, this time to England, and expressed his open contempt for the white Republicans who make up the majority of the GOP and praised Democrats for their diversity during a debate at Oxford in the wake of his ouster as House Speaker . . .
Is he now running for the Prime Minister of the U.K.?
Nevertheless, he is free to go on media tours bashing white people and lobbying for Israel, because he has now resigned from the US House of Representatives . . . I can only conclude that the collective RINO butthurt over former Speaker McCarthy is all about the Israelis who have hijacked the American deep state war machine.
It has become so painfully obvious, especially where you have someone like Nikki Haley wagging her finger and shouting down Vivek Ramaswamy in a presidential debate on live national television when the questions of this Ukrainian war against Russia and any mention of Israel are concerned, that the United States government has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the American Israeli Political Action Committee.
Tim Alberta just launched his book The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism.
I’ve been listening to it on Audible (he reads it), and it provides a part historical/part journalistic view of what has happened in American churches over the last 8-10 years. He interviews individuals on both sides of the spectrum...like Russell Moore and Greg Locke. It’s fascinating!
I am with a family member who is a victim of the hard right religious groups. There is another aspect going on, that is high pressure fundraising that preys on vulnerable people. It is manipulative and bringing trajedy into people's lives including mental health problems.
And I do not even know how much the leaders of these organizations believe the things they write in their mailers. I suspect they realize it is false, but they are fraudsters after money.
This is true. I'm sorry to hear about your family member. Their direct-mail fundraising has long been a powerful source of revenue. I hate to think of them preying on vulnerable people.
Thank you Kristin! Your letter is timely. We just spent time with some inspirational leaders working with the Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Freedom. We are supporting a local effort growing here in N. Texas to address Christian Nationalism in our communities... at times it feels an overwhelming, arduous effort, an undoing of sorts. I believe if we are called to anything it is to engage face to face with compassion and open thoughtful engagement. It is my hope that this counters the narrative of fear and scarcity that has lead us to this place. More info here.. with more to come: https://www.christiansagainstchristiannationalism.org/
I also want to draw attention to a non-partisan effort called March to The Polls, also started here in the DFW area. The focus is to engage & empower young voters, predominantly in underrepresented communities. The student lead voter empowerment chapters (SVEC) are growing and making a difference in their communities!
They are hosting candidate forums, meeting with school boards, and showing up to vote with their peers. I have seen students show up and talk with a particular school board divided by Christian Nationalistic rhetoric. And these students were able to show up and be seen and heard in ways the adults could not. And still there’s ample volunteer opportunity for us to support their voices. https://www.marchtothepolls.org/
Thank you for sharing! I'm a big fan of Amanda and Christians Against Chr Nationalism and I'm familiar with their TX chapter. I hadn't heard of March to the Polls--very glad to learn of this.
In what the late Saddam Hussein once dubbed “the great Satan,” roughly two-thirds of the United States enlisted military corps is white . . . The fat, bulbous, U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin once confirmed in a 93-2 vote of the U.S. Senate, immediately embarked on a whirlwind media tour of duty, telling the pseudo-secular sycophants in the state-controlled tabloid press and state-controlled television talk show circuit about how the U.S. Army is full of bad racist white men.
Senior Defense Department leaders celebrating yet another Pride Month at the Pentagon sounding the alarm about the rising number of state laws they say target the LGBTQ+ community, warned the trend is hurting the feelings of the armed forces . . . “LGBTQ plus and other diverse communities are under attack, just because they are different. Hate for hate’s sake,” said Gil Cisneros, the Pentagon’s undersecretary for personnel and readiness, who also serves as DoD’s chief diversity and inclusion officer.
And now the U.S. Army is doing ads begging for more young white males?
What happened?
Even with a full-on declaration of war from Congress, and even if Gavin Newsome could be cheated into the Oval Office by ZOG somehow, while Globohomo diversity brigades go door-to-door looking to impress American children into military service, they will be met with armed, well-trained opposition, the invasion at the Southern border is going full tilt, and the drugs are flowing in like never before . . .
With the borders of Europe and the USA wide open, civil warfare within the USA, Britain, and most of Europe is a certainty if foreign wars are initiated. Nobody is going to fight a war for Biden, he is dumber than Bush . . . Nobody is going to fight a war for that kikesucking Zionist ass-whore Nikki Haley, and I mean nobody.
Get ready for it . . . the fat old devil worshipping fags on Capitol Hill, on Wall Street, in Whitehall, and in Brussels are in no shape to fight a war themselves, and most Americans are armed to the teeth with their own guns . . . NATO hates heterosexual white men . . . they said so themselves . . .
Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) have every right to say what they like about Israel and the genocide of Palestinians as elected members of the US House of Representatives; they never took an oath to serve Israel . . .

I really like this idea. Would it look like teach-ins? In my experience it can be hard to draw students to these sorts of events. At least in my circles, it's those of us who have been around for a while who have a heightened sense of alarm.
I love this idea but I won't be organizing anything myself, but I love the ideas of others at various institutions organizing their own events. That would be wonderful to see.
Excellent, thank you for sharing! The Christians United group is also working to address the rise of CN in Hispanic communities. I think they will be addressing it in their seminar.
Al contrari . . . El judeomessianisme fa gairebé dos mil anys que escampa entre nosaltres el seu missatge verinós. Els universalismes democràtics i comunistes són més recents, però només han reforçat la vella narrativa jueva. Són els mateixos ideals.
Els ideals transnacionals, transracials, transsexuals, transculturals que aquestes ideologies ens prediquen (més enllà dels pobles, races, cultures) i que són el sosteniment diari de les nostres escoles, als nostres mitjans de comunicació, a la nostra cultura popular, a les nostres universitats, i sobre al nostres els carrers han acabat reduint la nostra identitat biosimbòlica i el nostre orgull ètnic a la seva mínima expressió.
El judaisme, el cristianisme i l'islam són cultes a la mort originats a l'Orient Mitjà i totalment aliens a Europa i als seus pobles.
De vegades ens preguntem per què l'esquerra europea es porta tan bé amb els musulmans. Per què un moviment sovint obertament antireligiós es posa del costat d'una religiositat ferotge que sembla oposar-se a gairebé tot allò que l'esquerra sempre ha pretès defensar? Part de l'explicació rau en el fet que l'islam i el marxisme tenen una arrel ideològica comuna: el judaisme.
Don Rumsfeld tenia raó quan va dir: "Europa s'ha desplaçat en el seu eix", va ser el bàndol equivocat que va guanyar la Segona Guerra Mundial, i es fa més clar cada dia . . . Què ha fet l'OTAN per defensar Europa? Absolutament res . . . Els meus enemics no són a Moscou, Damasc, Teheran, Riad o algun eteri bogeyman teutónic, els meus enemics són a Washington, Brusselles i Tel Aviv.
Cap país segueix el seu propi curs en aquesta invasió perquè és una agenda política liderada per l'ONU i impulsada pels jueus i els seus titelles (polítics). La majoria de la gent simplement no sap ni entén que aquesta és una agenda política. Tanmateix, alguns aconsegueixen entendre que els polítics estan treballant deliberadament per importar musulmans i substituir gent, però això és tot, són com un ordinador que no pot funcionar perquè el programa no ho permet.

OK I have to share our conversation last night.
Husband: Whoa! Charlie Peacock commented?!
10yo: Who's that?
Husband: One of my favorite musicians. I used to listen to his cassette when I did my paper routes as a kid, over and over.
10yo: What's a cassette?
Husband: It played music. You know, in a Walkman?
10yo: Oh right! I've read about those. In a book... A history book.
Will do!

I have a copy but haven't had a chance to do more than flip through a few pages yet.

Thank you!!
You were in a Rob Riener doc? Sweet.
Well, I don't know if he was involved yet when I gave my interview (I don't think so), but technically, yes. :)
That counts!

The New Evangelicals are working on their Project Amplify right now which seeks to to raise our voices and build a better way forward for us all.
I really like this idea. Would it look like teach-ins? In my experience it can be hard to draw students to these sorts of events. At least in my circles, it's those of us who have been around for a while who have a heightened sense of alarm.
