In comparing the difficult task American pastors face in their national context with that confronted by South African Christian leaders during Apartheid, South African minister and former bishop Peter Storey prophetically proclaims, We had obvious evils to engage; you have to unwrap your culture from years of red, white and blue myth. The American Church's obsession with an earthly nationalism over and above a heavenly citizenship continues to threaten Orthodox Christianity with the prospect of becoming a fruitless religion that is not long for this world. In The Red, White & Blue Myth, Kentucky poet and musician vagrant moon challenges American Christians to accept their status as aliens and strangers in a fallen world by admonishing believers to stop settling to live as mere non-perennial patriots in a kingdom that is passing away.
