| Sumario: | The political climate in the United States leading up to the 2016 election and beyond has shone a spotlight on White Christian nationalism and its deep hold on US Christianity. White Christian nationalism assumes a narrative that God founded America through White people. White people were here first, and everyone else is a threat. White Christian nationalism only wants some of its members to make it home (i.e., White Christians). White Christian nationalism reaches beyond this political structure and is foundational to Eurocentric approaches to biblical studies and Christianity in general. The story of Jesus’s own encounter with an “other” in Matt 15:21-28 invites us into a deeper story of Jesus that can help amend the narratives that keep us separate and divided. Part of the job of contemporary Jesus followers is to ensure the livelihood of the entire body of Christ and not only one segment of it. |
