David A. Ritchie is a pastor from Amarillo, Texas and the author of Why Do the Nations Rage: the demonic origin of nationalism and he joins us in the tent to discuss how nationalism—in whatever form it takes—creates a competing religion and way of life that demands our allegiance over following after Jesus. Our conversation relates this to gun control and America's blindness to violence as well as how a people's nationalism often manifests itself in idols they are unable to see.
