Star-Spangled Jesus: Leaving Christian Nationalism and Finding a True Faith by April Ajoy

This is a fantastic place to start when thinking about Christian nationalism and how it has manifested over the last couple of years. Ajoy provides a brief history to give some context and combines her own experiences with larger cultural moments to show the dangers of CN and where people who are part of it, knowingly or unknowingly, are coming from and how they got there. She takes a bit of a lighter tone in sections which makes this easier to digest. She's coming from someone who was a Christian Nationalist and started questioning her beliefs after Jan 6th so she has real insight and can also poke a bit of fun at herself. I think this book is an important piece of the conversation surrounding Christianity in the US since it's a bit more accessible than other books I've read on the subject.
