Greg Sheridan: Can the West Survive Without Christianity?

Описание: What happens to Western civilisation when it rejects its Christian and Jewish foundations?
In this wide-ranging conversation at the Institute of Public Affairs, Greg Sheridan joins John Roskam to discuss his book How Christians Can Succeed Today: Reclaiming the Genius of the Early Church.

Sheridan argues that the early Christians faced a far more hostile culture than Christians in the modern West, yet transformed that culture through courage, clarity, conviction, and faith.

He explores what their example means today for Christians, conservatives, and anyone concerned about the future of Western civilisation.

The discussion covers:

Why Sheridan believes “everything good in Western civilisation” comes from the Christian and Jewish tradition
What the early church can teach modern Christians
Why the West has become increasingly hostile to Christianity
The rise of a new paganism in modern culture
Signs of Christian revival among younger generations
Whether Australia is still a Christian country
Why Sheridan takes a measured view of Donald Trump

This is a conversation about faith, culture, civilisation, and whether renewal is still possible.
