#371 We Need to Talk About Christian Nationalism: What It Really Is | Dr. Bill Roach
The Alisa Childers PodcastShow Notes
Christian nationalism is one of the most debated and misunderstood issues in the church today. Is it simply a smear label used against conservatives—or is there a real movement seeking to reshape America’s political and religious order?
In this episode, Dr. Bill Roach joins me to break through the confusion. We discuss the many competing definitions of Christian nationalism, the factions claiming the label, and why clarity matters. Dr. Roach explains the historical roots behind modern Christian nationalist thought, how some versions challenge religious liberty, and why others frame it as a return to America’s founding principles.
We also examine parallels between the woke left and what some call the woke right, the dangers of authoritarianism from either side, and how Christians should think biblically about politics, freedom, and truth in a polarized age.

Decades ago, Christian philosopher and apologist Francis Schaeffer warned that evangelical Christianity was heading toward what he called “The Great Evangelical Disaster.” He believed that as Christians increasingly accommodated the spirit of the age, compromised biblical authority, and abandoned objective truth, the consequences would be devastating. Looking at the church today, was Schaeffer right?
