Podcast appearances and mentions of Mark David Hall

Mark David Hall, professor at Regent University, bravely makes his second appearance on the show to talk about his 2023 book, Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land, a history of Christianity's influence on American freedom and equality.

Mark David Hall is back on the podcast to talk about Christian nationalism, only this time, we're talking about the broader topic of religious nationalism globally. While Christian nationalism has received quite a bit of (inflated) attention in the US, there has been a noticeable trend towards religious nationalism around the world. It was a trend I picked up on and wrote about in a blog post (see below) ten years ago, but Mark and I discuss this trend now because earlier this year, Pew Research published a study on religious nationalism and how America and Christian nationalism measures up with other countries and their dominant religions. The Pew study validates a major claim Mark has been writing and speaking on, namely, that the concerns about Christian nationalism in America are indeed overblown. However, the study does much more than by giving us a window into something I only hinted at in my doctoral dissertation research: political culture influences state action. Religious nationalisms of all stripes and inherently political ideologies that seek to define and shape political culture a particular way, which, proportional to their population size in a country could have large effects on domestic and international politics. This was a groundbreaking and important study by Pew, and well worth taking the time to read and digest.Subscribe to Tim Talks Politics⁠⁠ on Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for the full show notes (30% for podcast listeners)!

Is Christian Nationalism an existential threat to America? Or is it a tactic to marginalize conservative voices today in the public arena? In this episode, I am joined by two scholars (Mark David Hall and Michael W. Austin) to discuss and debate the nature of Christian nationalism, the church and how Christians should bring their faith into the political realm.

The Christian Outlook – November 30, 2024 Bob Burney looks at how, even in the midst of struggle, we can still be thankful to God. Dr. Albert Mohler reminds us of the apologetic of Thanksgiving: being grateful and thankful should be directed towards the Giver of every good and perfect gift. John Hall and Kathy Emmons, of The Ride Home, talk with historian and NYT bestselling author Stephen Mansfield about the history of Thanksgiving and why it is deemed a controversial holiday when it shouldn't be. Georgene Rice talks with Mark David Hall of George Fox University about his book, “Did America Have a Christian Founding?: Separating Modern Myth from Historical Truth.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's 1787 and you are a delegate to the Constitutional Convention.  You represent a midsize state and arriving 3 days late, you encounter James Madison's Virginia Plan to allocate representation among the states proportionally.  You realize how this would be a detriment to smaller states who are needed to ratify the Constitution.  What do you do?  You are Roger Sherman from Connecticut and you draft the Connecticut Compromise which allocates representation in the lower chamber based on population but guarantees equal state representation in the upper chamber.  Why was this necessary and what other provisions did it entail?  To answer these questions, we are pleased welcome Mark David Hall, Professor in the Robertson School of Government at Regent University and scholar on early America.

Christian nationalism has gotten a lot of play the last few years, particularly in the rhetoric of its opponents in journalism, academia, and even the White House. According to its critics, Christian nationalism is a malevolent ideology that has allied itself with Donald Trump to capture conservative politics in America with the aim of bringing about a dystopian Christian theocracy akin to The Handmaid's Tale. Mark David Hall argues in his new book, Who's Afraid of Christian Nationalism?, that such claims are overblown and that Christian nationalism is not the existential threat the critics claim. In fact, Christian nationalism may not even be a helpful phrase to describe the thinking of American Christians when it comes to politics in general. In this interview, Mark and I chart the rise of the term turned pejorative, explore both journalistic and academic writing on Christian nationalism, evaluate the data connected with that research, and discuss how those (very) few Christians who do seek to make an affirmative case for Christian nationalism aren't even representative of most Christians.

A recent MSNBC article claimed that Donald Trump uses Christianity as a political prop to advance a theocracy and Kamala Harris practices the Christian faith she was raised in and embraces pluralism. Many on the Left call the Right Christian nationalists, and paint Christian nationalism as an existential threat to America, democracy, and the Church. Is this correct?

Today I am sharing why knowing history will give you fortitude and encouragement in the current political and cultural climate plus a truth concerning birds to give you peace and hope.History Is a wise companion and counselor.Knowing history allows us to have a better frame of reference for how the Lord has worked his character, his fulfillment of promises, and allows us to draw strength instead fastness from those who have walked before us during difficult and hard times.History reminds us we are not alone in our trials.**Note about end times and eschatology - If you read the last 10 or 20 years of current history, you will not have a proper view of eschatology in light of Scripture and all the the Lord has done and is doing. History is a wise companion and helps us learn from the past and build for the future. When we learn from history, we mature as people there's a famous quote by Cicero that says "To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child."History Book Ideas:Richard Hannula books: Radiant: 50 Remarkable Women in Church History - https://a.co/d/bwa01wzHeralds of the Reformation: https://a.co/d/4G54bAzFor Christ's Crown: https://a.co/d/dgrHqzvTrials and Triumph: https://a.co/d/hgKVFrYHistory from Creation to Modern Day Story of the World Volumes 1-4 (not distinctly Christian, but good chronological, read aloud or curriculum): https://a.co/d/dVdg4j9Mystery of History (more Christian - I have not used this, but it has been recommended): https://a.co/d/0x6TfktAmerican History:Did America Have a Christian Foundation?

Did the United States truly have a Christian founding, or were the Founders simply Deists who desired to create a secular nation?This question has been hotly debated for generations, and our society increasingly regards the idea of America's Christian heritage as something to be minimized, rejected, or denied.So what is the truth regarding the faith of the Founders and how it influenced their actions as they fought a revolution and brought forth a new nation?To answer this question we're speaking with historian Mark David Hall. Hall is one of the most distinguished scholars of early American history. He is a professor, a nationally-recognized expert on religious freedom, and the author of several books, including Did America Have a Christian Founding?

 Join us on this insightful episode of the ISI Podcast as we welcome esteemed scholar Mark David Hall to discuss his latest book, "Christian Nationalism: Myth and Reality." Hall, a leading expert on the American Founding and religion's role in public life, delves into the controversial and often misunderstood concept of Christian Nationalism.In this engaging conversation, Hall addresses critical questions such as: What is Christian Nationalism? How has it shaped American history and politics? Are the Founding Fathers' principles rooted in Christian beliefs? Through a nuanced exploration, Hall separates myths from historical truths, providing listeners with a well-rounded understanding of this complex topic.Whether you're a student of history, a scholar, or simply interested in the intersection of faith and politics, this episode offers valuable insights into the ongoing debate over America's religious and cultural identity. Tune in to gain a deeper perspective on how Christian Nationalism continues to influence contemporary discourse.

“Christian Nationalism has garnered significant attention in recent years, owing to the potential dangers it poses for American democracy. Its specter has spurred newfound interest in the role of religion in American public life with fresh considerations of familiar questions: Is religion resurging as a force in politics? Will America's Christian majority restrict the rights of religious minorities? Is Christian nationalism a real threat, or a small, extreme faction with outsized press coverage?” So asks Christian Nationalism: A New Approach, a December 2023 report by Neighborly Faith. In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I talk to Kevin Singer, Ryan Burge, and Mark David Hall about that report and the questions it raises. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. Kevin Singer is president of Neighborly Faith, a nonprofit whose mission is to provide “research and events introducing Christians to neighbors of every faith.” Ryan Burge is associate professor of political science at Eastern Illinois University and an ordained Baptist pastor; he posts regularly at Graphs About Religion. Mark David Hall is a professor at Regent University's Robertson School of Government and a senior fellow at the Center for Religion, Culture, and Democracy, where he directs its Religious Liberty in the States initiative. My conversation with them is coming up after a brief word from our sponsor. ————— This episode of the Influence Podcast is brought to you by My Healthy Church, distributors of Bible Engagement Project.

Gary concludes his response to a recent Wallbuilders show with Mark David Hall on the influence of R.J. Rushdoony. As a historian, Mark David Hall doesn't appear to have done much research at all on Rushdoony. However, there is a simpler answer: many others have also professed ignorance of his writings (on nearly everything) in order to distance themselves from his theonomic and theocratic views.

Gary continues his response to a recent episode from David Barton featuring historian Mark David Hall. David Barton's article about the 10 Commandments and American law: http://www.moseshand.com/studies/db400yrs.html 

Gary begins a series of three podcasts that respond to a recent show from David Barton's Wallbuilders organization. Barton's topic was Christian Nationalism and his guest was Mark David Hall, who makes the erroneous claim that Rousas J. Rushdoony was a small and insignificant voice on American history and church and state. Gary takes issue with this and discusses why.

Christians and Christianity are treated almost universally unfairly in discussions of American history in secular universities, Dr. Mark David Hall explains in this discussion of his new book, Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land: How Christianity Has Advanced Freedom and Equality for All Americans. He discusses with Dr. Jeff Myers how since the mid 20th century secular leftists have largely read Christianity out of our nation's history—and when they have noted what they believe to be the impact of the faith and the faithful on the country they've viewed it through all the wrong lenses. The remedy, he explains, is to examine history factually, not ideologically. When we do, we discover that Christians have been a force for liberty and equality for all Americans—on issues as varied as slavery and abortion.  Listen to every episode of the Dr. Jeff Show wherever you listen to podcasts.

If you were to be asked to name the five liberties secured by the First Amendment in the Constitution, and then choose which one was most important, what would you say? If it's not religious freedom, then perhaps you should rethink. Yes, freedom of speech is important. Yes, the ability to start a media outlet to report on the government is important. And moving away from the First Amendment, to the Second, it's irrefutable that the ability of the citizenry to keep and bear arms is a subtle reminder to the government about the power of the people. But religious freedom for a nation that's rooted in individualism, based on a concept of rights coming from God -- well now, that makes religious freedom the most important notion to preserve and protect. Still don't agree? Well listen up, then. Mark David Hall has much to say.
