2026_1_27 Heath Druzin: How Christian Nationalism is Changing Politics from Idaho to D.C.
Monday, 9 February, 2026
In this City Club of Idaho Falls forum, journalist and podcast host Heath Druzin explores how Christian nationalism is shaping politics in Idaho and across the United States. Drawing from his reporting for the podcast Extremely American, Druzin defines Christian nationalism as a political movement seeking an explicitly Christian form of government, distinct from personal faith or patriotism.He discusses the growing influence of Moscow, Idaho pastor Doug Wilson and Christ Church, including their national footprint through classical Christian schools and political organizing. Druzin also highlights key ideological themes within the movement, including patriarchy, distrust of democracy, and opposition to pluralism.The conversation examines how extremism affects civil discourse and why open, informed dialogue is essential during polarized times.
