Russell Moore Quote: “That promise is not to build “the evangelical movement,” whatever that is.

Any church can lose its lampstand, Jesus told us, and flicker out. We are more vulnerable than we know.”

Russell Moore Quote: “Christian nationalisms and civil religions are a kind of Great Commission in reverse, in which the nations seek to make disciples of themselves, using the authority of Jesus to baptize their national identity in the name of the blood and of the soil and of the political order. The gospel is not a means to any end, except for the end of union with the crucified and resurrected Christ who transcends, and stands in judgment over, every group, every identity, every nationality, every culture.”
