In recent years, the Christian right has become an increasingly powerful force in American politics.
The belief that God has called on conservative Christians to rule over society has extended into all levels of government,
from school boards to the White House.
Many pundits call this movement #Christian #nationalism.
But while it may seem like a phenomenon born out of our current political moment,
it represents the culmination of various movements with roots that trace back decades.
The more extreme elements didn’t just materialize a few years ago. They’ve been there from the start.
