He was not acting alone. He was the product of a movement four centuries in the making, now embedded at the highest levels of American government.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAmerican Jesus: The Fight for the Soul of America\u003c\/em\u003e traces that movement from its origins in Puritan New England - where John Winthrop's \"city upon a hill\" first cast America as a nation chosen by God - through four hundred years of institution-building to its current, unprecedented proximity to political power. Peter Woollen argues that Christian nationalism is not a fringe phenomenon or a passing reaction, but the most organized and consequential threat to American pluralism and constitutional democracy in our lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book moves through three parts: the historical and symbolic roots of the movement; the ideology and key figures driving it today - from Pentecostal prophets and Calvinist Reconstructionists to online provocateurs and MAGA populists, with particular attention to the New Apostolic Reformation and Christian Reconstructionism; and the institutional machinery - media networks, think tanks, legal infrastructure, and the implementation of Project 2025 - that has turned belief into policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs America approaches its 250th anniversary, \u003cem\u003eAmerican Jesus\u003c\/em\u003e offers a clear-eyed, deeply researched guide to understanding how an old idea was repackaged for a new political era - and what is now at stake for the pluralistic democracy the founders built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-18823945\"\u003ePeter Woollen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Woollen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.51d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798256199630\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POL\"\u003ePolitical Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POL000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Woollen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55687535853867,"sku":"9798256199630","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/7966\/2379\/files\/9798256199630.jpg?v=1790355379","url":"https:\/\/www.txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/products\/american-jesus-christian-nationalism-the-fight-for-the-soul-of-america-9798256199630","provider":"TX CorrectionsBookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
