God was on display at last week’s Republican National Convention. Over the past 40 years, the Republican party has felt comfortable mixing politics and evangelical Christianity. But this year’s GOP convention featured an abundance of religious language after Donald Trump was nearly killed. Throughout the four-day convention, speaker after speaker mentioned God’s protection for the former president and referred to divine intervention when recalling the failed assassination attempt. And several times Trump was described as a roaring lion after being grazed by a bullet.
