To your point about how the church celebrates national holidays, I’ve observed that it’s completely normal…and expected…in many Protestant churches to have an American flag prominently displayed in the sanctuary.

Appreciate your witness against Christian Nationalism (& the voices of Jones & Tyler). There does seem to be a problem with White Supremacists co-opting Christian symbols & words (like "In God We Trust") as more palatable symbols to stand in for Confederate imagery. I co-wrote a piece about this problem just this week: "Has the Christian Flag Become a Lost Cause"
