White American Christianity is broken. Since 2016, that much has been clear. But Trump was not the cause of that brokenness-he was the result.

An anthology of dissent, Keeping the Faith unites the voices of believers across America who reject Christian nationalism and its idolatry of power-who are re-imagining how the Gospel should interweave our faith and politics. These essays confront the lies that have metastasized in American churches for the last four years, exploring dozens of complex topics along the way, from foreign policy and immigration to race and abortion.

We don't pretend to agree on everything, but what unites us is a deep desire to see the Church liberated from the broken narratives that have led so many to put their faith in Donald Trump.

This collection is for anyone who has ever looked at the unholy religious pageantry that enables Trumpism and said quietly in their heart: This is not my Jesus. We're with you. And we're saying it from the chest, for the people in the back.

"The line-up of voices in this important volume speaks strongly to the powerful intersection between fervent faith and political power in America. The missteps of the present cannot continue. As these writers press us to see a new future in Jesus' name, let us examine our own hearts and footsteps and start walking rightly." - Dr. Daniel Harrell, Editor in Chief, Christianity Today

"God's spirit is inviting us in this moment in time to consider what the voice of God's people will be. This collection of essays written by practitioners, academics, and activists of faith will equip you to consider the reality of how our political structures and systems impact people. Historical insights and personal narratives will challenge our allegiance and deepen our worship." - Sandra Maria Van Opstal, Executive Director of Chasing Justice

"This collection of essays constitutes a compelling witness to the justice claims of the gospel. This wide-ranging testimony presents a host of writers with appropriate measures of passion, indignation, and hope with reference to urgent contemporary issues. The accent on justice powerfully disrupts our all too easy compromises of the gospel, and invites us to be 'woke' in active, transformative ways." - Dr. Walter Brueggemann, Professor Emeritus at Columbia Theological Seminary

"An important, powerful book by younger Christians. Their moving personal stories and probing theological reflection challenge us to let Christ, not surrounding society, be Lord of our politics. Their penetrating, biblically grounded critique of so much of white evangelicalism will stand as an important historical witness to biblical fidelity at a time of massive white evangelical failure and disobedience. Highly recommended." - Dr. Ron Sider, Founder and President Emeritus of Christians for Social Action

"This book is a sobering look at these challenging times. It's broad and deep range of perspectives helped me turn to Jesus, to his values, and to ask for his help. This is a great read that puts matters back into a Kingdom perspective...one that doesn't let us off the hook to build a better future in our communities and our country." - Rev. Dr. Joel C. Hunter, Former Senior Pastor of Northland, A Church Distributed
