Abstract
The seismic events of 2020 — a global pandemic with differing levels of trust in public health authorities, the prominence of conspiracy theories, and fresh attention to the ongoing impact of systemic and individual racism — once more made it clear the significance of the way Christians relate to issues of knowledge, expertise and authority in the public sphere.
Yet the events of 2020 did not come from nowhere. US–Australian evangelical Christian responses to shifting cultural and political landscapes, racial justice, authority of science, and decolonisation have entangled histories.
