As part of our conversation on the new book Reborn on the Fourth of July: The Challenge of Faith, Patriotism and Conscience by Logan Mehl-Laituri, we invited several prominent Christian thought-leaders to offer a message to the church on the Fourth of July. They considered: how should our faith inform our patriotism?
Here, author and pastor Roger Wolsey reflects on the tensions between loving God, and loving Country.
Check out more “Messages to the Church on the Fourth of July,” from Brian McLaren, Lisa Sharon Harper, Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, and Callid Keefe-Perry.
What do you think: What does it mean to love God and love Country? How does your faith affect your patriotism?
