| Résumé: | An Orlando based ministry called Zion’s Hope seeks to shape Christian identity in a two-prong approach. The first prong is the creation of an American Christian pilgrimage site. During a trip to this theme park cum pilgrimage center, visitors are exposed to two central aspects of a desired Christian identity - a love of Christ and a love for Israel. The second phase or prong of this identity construction effort is a magazine that reinforces the first two points and adds anti-Arab, anti-Islam sentiments. This paper explores these efforts and their role in promoting the "clash of civilizations." |
