A hilarious and eye-opening account of leaving Christian Nationalism behind to follow Jesus better. Social media influencer and podcast host April Ajoy wouldn’t have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again.

But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Did God really bless America? Is it actually by His red, white, and blue stripes that we are healed?

Part memoir, part guidebook, part call to action, Star-Spangled Jesus explores how the fight to make America a “Christian nation” has damaged us all and shows how one woman left Christian Nationalism and why America should too.

As someone who grew up in a fundamentalist Christian home (borderline Christian Nationalist), I related to so much of April’s story. It was great to hear someone else addressing many of the same things that I heard and experienced growing up. I loved the balance of her story and research into the topics of the book. I learned a lot and will be sharing the book with friends and family.

Great book and greatly needed at such a time as this. Christian Nationalism is toxic and taking our country backwards. Christians need to rediscover the teachings of Jesus, which don’t line up with Christian Nationalism and the toxic patriarchy it promotes. Thank you for writing this April!

Fantastic work!

While I didn’t grow up the way you did, I still have pain from friends and family who fit into those categories, and aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. It hurts to think about the fundamental ethical differences you can have with people you love or loved. But there is so much hope in finding other Christians who aren’t white Christian nationalists…. They’re out there! This was a wonderful memoir and thank you for sharing it.

It was so interesting to hear April’s journey. It helped me to better understand what is happening in our country. I wish my mom would read or listen to it before the election!
