About this listen

In this hilarious memoir, a social media star and podcast host shares about her time deeply entrenched in Christian Nationalism and how she left it behind to better follow Jesus.

Social media influencer and podcast host April Ajoy wouldn’t have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again.

But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Did God really bless America? Is it actually by His red, white, and blue stripes that we are healed?

Part memoir, part guidebook, part call to action, Star-Spangled Jesus explores how the fight to make America a “Christian nation” has damaged us all and shows how one woman left Christian Nationalism and why America should too.

I have always been fascinated with Christianity in America (as an outsider but a Christian) and its strange combination of patriotism and faith. I didn’t have the language for it before but know I do. While not an academic text, it does give a clear understanding of how and why Christian Nationalism exists today and it’s impact both domestically and internationally. April mixes her own personal experiences and research to give an insight into a group that feels so alien to myself and yet could be so familiar if not for a few sliding doors. A truly fantastic listen!

An eye opener
