Disarming Leviathan: Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor

A book recommendation offered by

Rev. Rob Edwards

EVA Interim Associate Conference Minister

In Disarming Leviathan, Campbell equips Christians to minister to their Christian nationalist neighbors. He introduces the basics of Christian nationalism and explores the reasons so many people are attracted to it. He also addresses a variety of American Christian nationalist talking points and offers questions and responses that humbly subvert these claims and cultivate deeper, heart-level conversations.

4 Reads for Black History Month

by C. L. Stumb, editor

Book 1 - White Too Long

"This book puts forward a simple proposition: It is time -- indeed, well beyond time -- for white Christians in the United States to reckon with the racism of our past and the willful amnesia of our present." -- p. 5 (Kindle edition)

"Southern white Christians, particularly Baptists, played a critical role in justifying a particularly southern way of life, including what they sometimes referred to as the "peculiar institution" of slavery. Central to this story, but not widely known, are the efforts of the Reverend. Dr. Basil Manly Sr. born into a wealthy North Carolina plantation family in 1798."

...

"Manly was acknowledged as one of the most uncompromising religious voices supporting slavery. Manly first issued a call for a new seminary for Baptists in the South in 1835 while he was serving as pastor of Charleston Church in South Carolina." -- p. 34 (Kindle edition
