Postcards from Babylon: The Church in American Exile
Brian Zahnd and David and Kathi Peters with Global Story Films
The discussion of Christian Nationalism with the Church being front and center of the conversation presents an opportunity for voices on the margins of Christianity in the United States to be highlighted. U.S. of American Evangelical Christianity has a lot of influence, through its money and its loud voice. But it's arguably, on the decline. I want to highlight a Christian pastor Brian Zahnd and thought leader and two intrepid filmmakers, David and Kathi Peters who are presenting a different version of the Christian expression in the U.S. Postcards from Babylon: The Church in American Exile is a book and documentary that deconstructs Christian Nationalism and civic religion. It challenges assumptions, that many Evangelicals have taken as truth or have blatantly ignored. It offers an alternative perspective and some guidance on how to navigate a faith journey outside of the prevailing Evangelical norms.
