Pastoral Leadership in a Time of Christian Nationalism
In a time when Christian nationalism is gaining both cultural and political traction, the work of pastoral leadership requires renewed theological reflection, moral clarity, and prophetic courage. Candler is hosting this set of four public lectures to start conversations and offer resources to equip pastors and church leaders to respond faithfully to the challenges posed by this growing movement.
Across two days, we’ll hear from four nationally recognized speakers whose work engages the intersections of religion, politics, and culture: Tim Alberta, journalist, author of The Kingdom, The Power, and The Glory, and son of an evangelical pastor; Kristin Kobes Du Mez, historian and author of Jesus and John Wayne; Katherine Stewart, investigative journalist and author of Money, Lies, and God; and Matthew D. Taylor, scholar of religion and extremism and author of The Violent Take It by Force.
All lectures are free and open to the public in both in-person and virtual formats, with advance registration required.
