Christian Reconstructionists believe that God’s law, in particular the legal mandates of the Hebrew Bible, should govern society. Their goal is a theocracy in which believers rule, and sinners, as well as non-believers, can be put to death. At its inception in the late 1950s, Reconstructionism was tied to Calvinism, but dominion theology — the notion that Christians should govern nations according to Biblical law — has been embraced by a wide range of evangelicals.
Hegseth says he began leaning into his Christian faith in 2018 and, a few years later, decided his seven children needed a “classical Christian education.” A classical Christian education is important to many white, right-wing evangelicals. which is why they steer clear of public schools.
R.J. Rushdooney, Reconstructionism’s founder, asserted that the family, not the government, should oversee the instruction of children. An early proponent of homeschooling, Rushdoony supported Christian schools which taught Biblical values such as creationism and male headship, the belief that wives should be subordinate to their husbands.
So, in 2022, Hegseth’s family moved from New Jersey, settling outside Nashville. There, Hegseth discovered Pilgrim Hill Reformed Fellowship, a congregation aligned with the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches. Like other CREC churches, Pilgrim Hill adheres to Reconstructionist principles and supports an extreme version of Christian nationalism.
