What does it mean to love our country? Some Christians see loyalty
to America as central to our faith and identity. Other Christians
are skeptical that our nation warrants such devotion or attachment.
But Richard Mouw encourages Christians to have a healthy sense of
national peoplehood that promotes civic kinship and responsible
citizenship. He navigates between Christian nationalism on one hand
and cynicism about country on the other to avoid the perils of both
idolatry and disengagement. Mouw grapples with sticky questions
such as how to honor national holidays in church and the place of
protests in forging a more perfect union. Placing love of country
in the context of Christian love of neighbor, he sees patriotism as
an expression of our heavenly citizenship and a call to help our
country be a place where all people can thrive in peace. Mouw's
winsome and wise reflections direct our patriotic affections toward
the civic good of others within our churches and in our
communities. This guide helps us travel together on a shared
national journey toward liberty and justice for all.
