In guns we trust
the unholy trinity of white Evangelicals politics and firearms
Book - 2025
In Guns We Trust investigates the surprising and often troubling connection between white evangelical Christianity and firearms in the United States. Veteran journalist William J. Kole explores why many evangelicals embrace guns as a sacred right, blending personal reflection with immersive reporting. From sanctuaries where worshippers openly carry weapons to churches that teach target practice as outreach, Kole examines how faith, politics, and the gun industry intersect. Highlighting activists and dissenting Christians working for change, the book offers a deeply researched, humanized, and urgent look at how this "locked-and-loaded" Christianity shapes American society-- and how conversation, courage, and resistance might foster peace --
