White evangelical churches and organizations play a significant role in mobilizing congregants as participants in the white Christian nationalist movement. This fusion of faith and politics has made white evangelicals "ambassadors" of white Christian nationalism (Miller, 2022). This paper interrogates the history, theology, and politics…
