The Faulty Theology Underlying Christian Nationalism
Secular journalists, liberal theologians, and bloggers have recently concocted the term “Christian Nationalist.” With a broad brush they are branding many well-meaning Christians serving in public office with this newly coined pejorative in an attempt to marginalize their influence in the public square.
What is a Christian Nationalist? Is every Evangelical in office a Christian Nationalist? What do the name callers mean when they charge you with this? By painting—increasingly all—public servants who trust in Christ for their salvation as “Christian Nationalists” they hope to cripple your influence, instill fear in the voting populous, silence Christians, eradicate biblical influence, and intimidate believers from even participating in the political process. This is nothing less than yet another attempt to cancel Christians and abolish their biblical worldview from our nation.
Christian Nationalism is a valid term, but the problem is, it summarizes three faulty theological constructs that you need to be aware of and know why they are aberrant. Here then is a newly minted term to describe ages-old really bad theology—theology you don’t want to have anything to do with!
I would like to challenge any Christian who may be attracted to this flawed concept to read this study and learn why Christian Nationalism and the corrupt and unbiblical theology it was based upon should be summarily rejected by true believers.
I promise, this Bible study will unpack all of this for you. It is important to know what all this means and why you should steer clear of it. This stuff is all out in left field.

Capitol Ministries was founded by Drollinger and his wife Danielle in 1996 with the mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ in the political arena throughout the world. To date, the ministry has established discipleship Bible-study ministries to legislators in 43 states, to city and county local leaders in communities in nine states and in dozens of foreign countries.
As an expository historical evangelical pastor, Drollinger teaches the Bible one book at a time, verse by verse. Additionally, every week Bible studies Drollinger has written on topical issues are delivered to the 535 legislators. Drollinger believes that nothing can substitute this basic discipline in ministry. Transformation and discipleship stem from “the renewing of the mind” (Romans 12:1-2).
Drollinger played basketball at UCLA under coach John Wooden and was the first player in NCAA history to go to four Final Four tournaments. Drollinger was taken in the NBA Draft three times but chose to forgo the NBA to instead play with Athletes in Action, an evangelistic basketball team that toured the world and preached the gospel at halftimes. Drollinger signed with the Dallas Mavericks in June 1980 as a free agent, becoming the first Dallas Maverick in the history of the then-new NBA franchise.
A world-class mountaineer, Drollinger is the first person to have climbed every peak on the main ridge of the Sierra Nevada between Olancha and Sonora Pass, CA, the 250-mile section known as the High Sierra. Ralph and Danielle Drollinger have three married children and seven grandchildren.
