In this book, readers follow the powerful journey of one journalist who dared to investigate the growing threat of Christian nationalism in America. Through years of courageous reporting, Katherine Stewart uncovered how religious extremism has quietly gained influence in public schools, government and the legal system, often under the radar and with long-term political goals. This book tells the story of how Stewart began with a simple question about church programs in schools and uncovered a vast, well-funded movement determined to reshape American democracy. From classrooms and courtrooms to Congress and beyond, she traced the networks, money and messaging behind efforts to undermine secular institutions and blur the lines between church and state. With clear storytelling and in-depth analysis, the book explores the rise of the Christian Right, its political strategies and its international alliances with authoritarian leaders. At the heart of it all is Stewart's unwavering dedication to truth, even when faced with personal attacks and professional risks. Packed with insight and urgency, this book is not just a portrait of a fearless journalist, it's a warning, a wake-up call and a hopeful reminder that resistance is possible. For anyone concerned about the future of democracy, religious freedom, and the separation of church and state, this is essential reading.
