“God & Country” asks this question: What happens when a faith built on love, sacrifice and forgiveness grows political tentacles, conflating power, money and belief into hyper-nationalism?
The film answers this question and takes a look at the growing trend of Christian nationalism by using many popular Christian voices who speak against its rise including Kristin Kobes Du Mez, Jemar Tisby, Anthea Butler, Rob Schenk, Russell Moore, Phil Vischer and David French.
Dan Partland directed the documentary and Rob Reiner produced it.
