Official synopsis Publisher
“A sobering assessment of the evolution of Christian nationalism.” –Publishers Weekly
Exposing the decades-long plan to radically transform America–how the seven mountains movement, prosperity preachers, and political operatives are destroying democracy under Trump’s second administration.
The movement to install a populist strongman in the White House with a game plan for enforcing right-wing policies and catering to evangelical Christians started well before Donald Trump’s first candidacy. For decades, a well-funded network of religious and political operatives has been quietly working to dismantle democracy and replace it with Christian theocracy. Their strategy? The seven mountains mandate–a plan to seize control of seven key pillars of American society and reshape the nation:
- Education
- Government
- Religion
- Family
- Business
- Media
- Entertainment
Scholar Matthew Boedy exposes how this movement–driven by prosperity preachers, extremist politicians, and right-wing power brokers–laid the groundwork for Trump’s presidency and is now advancing its agenda under his second administration. From local school board elections to billion-dollar megachurches, this multipronged effort is reshaping the country in ways most Americans don’t even realize. Discover what has motivated the key players in this movement, how they’ve operated, and what is the unprecedented role of millennial “kingmaker” Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA and the new face of Christian nationalism and the seven mountains movement, who believes that “we finally have a president who understands the seven mountains of cultural influence.”
Today’s news is so much more than the scattershot orders of an extreme administration. With Project 2025 policies in motion, the seven mountains movement is closer than ever to its goal of turning America into a Christian nationalist state. Leaders of this movement have been playing a long game, undermining democracy to establish a theocracy, but it’s not too late to halt their progress and reverse the tide. This book reveals what’s happening behind the scenes–and what you can do to stop it.
