Concern for an extreme form of Christian nationalism influencing the current American administration’s decisions led Mary Theresa Webb to revisit over two thousand years of Christian history. She reminds today’s believers why God chose to send his Son to be born at the time of the Roman occupation of Palestine and what we can learn about how to live in the domain of God (since America was founded to get away from kings and kingdoms). She explores the role of the Beatitudes as a compass for following the Christian way, truth, and life. Before addressing the danger now to American Christianity, Webb reviews eschatology terms and heresies that have led to the formation of the creeds. Her examples of the entwinement of church and state are warnings for American Christians to bring us back from the cliff we are headed toward. In true prophetic style, hope comes in the last chapter with suggestions for specific actions church leaders can take to bring us back from disaster.
