This movie looks really good, and I hope it will be seen by many people, and I look forward to seeing it. I very much like the cross-section of faith leaders whose voices are included. People in the pews need to know that the leaders of the White Christian Nationalist movement are in it for power and nothing more. Not at all surprised they're bad-mouthing the movie already... it threatens to rip off their masks and expose the truth.

Thank you for being involved in this project Dr Tisby. It must have been 10 years ago when I began to realize that the faith and politics of my youth had dovetailed in ways that were not healthy and not biblical. Greg Boyd’s book “The Myth of a Christian Nation” gave words to what I was feeling, Donald Trumps election win woke me up and the Jan 6 insurrection showed me how bad it had gotten. You and Kristen Kobes DuMez, Beth Allison Barr and others have been so helpful and inspiring during the last few years. Thank you!

When the fusion of far right reactionary, authoritarian politics and religious faith is complete, those who believe can’t tell the difference – where one ends, and the other begins. I have good friends who are in this situation and it’s very sad to see. Thank you for giving your time to the cause of telling the truth about this alarming situation in our country

It's frightening how ingrained this ideology is in the people who follow it. And it's so bizarre to have watched this movement take shape and solidify. I'm so glad people like you are bringing attention to it.

My Christian Nationalist friends don’t see a problem with being one. They think it’s a good quality.

I look forward to seeing the film. My hope is that it will shake some individuals from their belief that this ideology is harmless.

It is difficult, if not impossible, for Christian nationalists to be objective, when subjectivity and false narratives are the foundation to their ideology.

I look forward to seeing the documentary and evaluating it for myself.
