How Do You Respond to the Growing Threats from Secular Progressivism?

Religious liberty is under assault. Identity politics is everywhere. “Social justice” has corrupted even mainstream religious groups. And across the culture we see the telltale signs of a new, “soft” totalitarianism. 

These threats are so widespread that it is tempting to throw up your hands.

But on Saturday, March 20, you can spend the day with the perfect guides to navigating our perilous age.

Tune in live at 10 a.m. ET to hear from three of the most important thinkers exploring the totalitarian tendencies in modern society:

  • Rod Dreher, influential blogger and bestselling author of The Benedict Option and Live Not by Lies, who will address how to resist soft totalitarianism
  • Daniel J. Mahoney, author of The Idol of Our Age, who will explore the “ersatz religion of our time” 
  • Joshua Mitchell, Georgetown University professor, who will reveal why identity politics will never stop in its pursuit of scapegoats

Register now to join us for this invaluable conference addressing growing dangers.
