Dear Friend:

I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss Andrew’s email about this opportunity to join us for a unique discussion and exclusive, behind-the-scenes sneak peek of “God & Country” on Feb. 13, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. ET. Space is limited, so RSVP today. 

This compelling new documentary, produced by Rob Reiner, outlines the threat Christian Nationalism poses to our democracy.

AU President and CEO Rachel Laser will host this free, virtual event, which will include clips of the documentary, a panel discussion with AU’s Andrew L. Seidel, myself and others involved in the film, and an audience Q&A.

This is your chance to see a sneak peek of the film before it is released later this month, so RSVP now to join us on Feb. 13! If you can’t attend the discussion live but would like to receive a recording of the event afterward, please RSVP. 

Hope to see you there!

Dear Friend:

AU has been warning about the threat Christian Nationalism poses to our democracy, and I’m pleased to announce that a compelling new documentary produced by Rob Reiner takes our warning seriously.

Join us Feb. 13, 2024, at 7 p.m. ET for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes sneak peak of “God & Country,” which features AU experts Rob Boston and myself, along with many respected scholars and faith leaders. This free, virtual event will include clips of the documentary, a panel discussion with people involved in the film, and an audience Q&A.

Based on author Katherine Stewart’s book The Power Worshippers: Inside the Dangerous Rise of Religious Nationalism, “God & Country” looks at the implications of Christian Nationalism and how it distorts not only our constitutional republic but Christianity itself. Experts interviewed for the film include author, historian, and professor Anthea Butler, who will be a keynote speaker at the Summit for Religious Freedom (SRF) that AU is hosting in April.

During this unique event on Feb. 13, you’ll hear from many people involved in the documentary, including: Emmy Award-winning actor and producer Rob Reiner, veteran documentary film and TV director Dan Partland, AU President and CEO Rachel Laser, AU’s Rob Boston and myself, author Katherine Stewart, and author and historian Jemar Tisby. They’ll take us through the making of the documentary and tell us just what's at stake with the growing threat of Christian Nationalism. A question-and-answer session will follow.

This is your chance to see a sneak peek of the film before it is released later this month, so register now for our free virtual event on February 13, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. ET. If you can’t attend the discussion live but would like to receive a recording of the event afterward, please RSVP. 

Hope to see you there!

VP of Strategic Communications
