Government Sponsored Revival Meetings? by Ronald A. Lindsay

Season 45 Published 6 months, 4 weeks ago
Description

Ronald A. Lindsay critiques claims that the Trump administration may sponsor nationwide Christian revival meetings as part of the 250th anniversary celebrations of U.S. independence. He warns that such events, even if disguised as "voluntary" or patriotic, reflect the administration's ongoing effort to fuse religion with political power and erode constitutional limits on church-state separation.
