  The insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, was not a blip or an aberration. It was the logical outcome of years of a White evangelical subculture's preparation for war. Religion scholar and former insider Bradley Onishi maps the origins of White Christian nationalism and traces its offshoots in Preparing for War. 
   
   
   
  Combining his own experiences in the youth groups and prayer meetings of the 1990s with an immersive look at the steady blending of White grievance politics with evangelicalism, Onishi crafts an engrossing account of the years-long campaign of White Christian nationalism that led to January 6. How did the rise of what Onishi calls the New Religious Right, between 1960 and 2015, give birth to violent White Christian nationalism during the Trump presidency and beyond? What propelled some of the most conservative religious communities in the country—communities of which Onishi was once a part—to ignite a cold civil war? 
   
   
   
  Through chapters on White supremacy and segregationist theologies, conspiracy theories, the Christian-school movement, purity culture, and the right-wing media ecosystem, Onishi pulls back the curtain on a subculture that birthed a movement and has taken a dangerous turn.

  Raising children is never an easy task; as many parents will tell you, it is a lifetime commitment and one that can sometimes be thankless. Now, raising a neuro-divergent child makes parenting several times more challenging. 
  Neuro-divergence is the difference in brain function from what we consider standard or typical. A neuro-divergent child shows different mental characteristics from what would be considered typical, called neuro-typical. ODD and ADHD are two examples of neuro-divergent disorders that are common among the population. 
  Raising a child with an ODD and ADHD combination is infinitely more challenging than usual and requires greater tact and patience. Children with ODD and ADHD often show developmental problems, defiance of authority, disregard for what is considered normal, and, if not checked, can develop problems in their social life. 
  So, if you are wondering:What exactly are ODD and ADHDHow do I tell the difference between the two?What behavioral problems do the two disorders display? 
  And other similar questions, then read on. 
  This book will cover:What ODD and ADHD are?How ODD with ADHD presents itself.Behavioral problems that an oppositional child displaysLearning how to raise a child with ODD and ADHD combined 
  And so much more. 
  I hope you enjoy it!
