Nota del editor: Este artículo apareció en la versión impresa de la revista en inglés antes del intento de asesinato contra el expresidente Donald Trump. Lo publicamos en línea en inglés (y ahora en español) antes de lo previsto dada su relevancia en el momento actual. Estados Unidos se encuentra en medio de otra elección presidencial que, en muchos sentidos, provoca un déjà vu de 2020, año que fue un punto álgido del malestar político y social que tal vez muchos desearían poder olvidar.

Yesterday’s failed assassination attempt might have shocked, but it did not surprise. I am glad former President Trump is relatively unharmed. And it’s fitting we pray for him, and the families who—today—are holding out for loved ones to recover. And pray for those mourning permanent loss. How did we get here? Elected officials and scholars have warned of the increasing chance for these sorts of events for years.

Evangelical Christians in America have twisted the Christian story to align with partisan causes, says Jared Stacey. While a documentary can shine a spotlight on this, the only real antidote is a fresh encounter with God
Bad Faith is a new documentary that examines the role of American evangelical Christians leading up to the Capitol Insurrection on January 6 2021.

Review Culture Music 1 min read I sometimes wake up in a cold sweat with flashbacks of one terrible swimming lesson at school. I had accidentally forgotten to forget my kit, so was forced to face not only the freezing water, but the spouting of ignorant prejudice from my teacher. “Kandiah, you’re useless,” he said, as I heaved myself out of the pool at the end of the lesson. “Although I guess it’s not your fault you can’t float like the white children. Your bones are heavier.

Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. Maybe you’re like me and grew up with the Sunday School version of Palm Sunday. You might have flashbacks to palm fronds, a donkey, and yelling “HOSANNA” as loud as you could — to be sure, these are elements of the story. But the meaning—or let’s say shock value—of this story is lost on us. Palm Sunday is full of political tension, questions of power, and the nature of the Kingdom of God.

As Donald Trump celebrates an overwhelming victory in the US’s first election contest of 2024, Jared Stacy notes that most white evangelicals are among his supporters. What does this mean for the future of the American Church?
Former President Donald Trump is the far and away frontrunner for the Republican nomination for the American Presidency in 2024.
In what promises to be one of the most divisive and consequential elections since, well, the last one just four years ago.

Donald Trump is walking away from the Iowa caucus with a dominating win. He is the leading contender for the GOP Presidential nomination. A few notable exit polls worth mentioning from CNN:These exit polls aren’t dogma. They’re fluid and can be massively unreliable. Still, they give us an interesting window into a small corner of America that plays a significant role in our electoral process. What is clear is that evangelical support for Trump hasn’t changed, in that it is still very strong.

Former President Trump’s third campaign for the Presidency is promising retribution against domestic enemies, while also holding double digit leads in key primary states. But the two are related. As the nation marks the third anniversary of the January 6 attacks, new research suggests Trump’s increasingly brazen authoritarianism is in step with intensifying Christian nationalism among parts of the American public.
