“The film’s insights about the role of religion in politics feel especially well-informed because many of its commentators draw on their own personal and professional experiences with the Christian church. They’re believers, too, and they’re worried.”

“Among the things that gives God & Country — based on the book The Power Worshippers, by Katherine Stewart — its strength is that most of its numerous interview subjects are both deeply religious Christians and politically conservative. They’re clearly disturbed by the movement’s distortion of religion and its rewriting of history.”

“Perhaps most importantly, God & Country addresses the threats the Christian nationalist movement poses to democracy, national discourse, and the health of Christianity. More than that, it helps Christian and non-Christian viewers alike understand that this movement is one they can easily stand against, and that vocal, united opposition of the kind that defined the church during the Civil Rights Movement is more important than ever.”

Critics Consensus
“God & Country offers a chilling and bracingly effective look at political forces aligning in an effort to erase the barrier between church and state.”
