CNN is releasing a documentary warning about the “rise of Christian nationalism,” but what exactly does that term even mean—and why does the media seem so terrified of it? In this episode, Allie Beth Stuckey breaks down the narrative behind CNN’s latest project and explains why the label “Christian nationalist” is often used as a political smear against Christians who simply refuse to keep their faith private. Allie examines how journalists define Christian nationalism, why the media claims it’s a growing threat, and why the same critics who insist Christians stay out of politics have no problem bringing progressive ideology into every corner of public life—from schools to government to culture.
