Rite and ritual are not things that contemporary evangelical Christians seem to care much about. But does the historic, biblical Christian faith place importance on these things? Is our rejection of ritual due to our embrace of modernism and not because of a biblical spirituality? Contra Mundum is made possible by these sponsors: Don’t settle for u…

Against Christianity 1:31:45

Today we are discussing Peter Leithart's book, Against Christianity. Peter Leithart’s Against Christianity is a Molotov cocktail lobbed at the milquetoast “religion” of modern Christianity. It’s not a hobby; it’s a totalizing way of life that spits in the face of secular sludge. Leithart dismantles the neutered, privatized faith, demanding a public…
