Speak Life - Tom Holland: A Secular Historian Loses His Faith (In Liberalism) - RESET Interview
Tom Holland is a historian and author of many books including "Dominion: The Making of the Western Mind." Here he speaks with Glen Scrivener about losing his faith. But the faith that he loses is a faith in what he calls "the pallid simulacrum" of Christianity — western liberal values. Instead he has found himself surrendering to the moral and mythical truth of the stories — ie the stories of Christianity.
In these interviews, Glen Scrivener asks questions about conflict, suffering, death, sex, equality, science, and what it means to be human.
Length: 1hr 14mins
RESET is a series of 16 INTERVIEWS and 7 EPISODES exploring the meaning crisis. With the help of cultural analysts and biblical scholars we're going back to the beginning — to Genesis, the West's great origins story — to hear the ancient texts speaking today.
Glen Scrivener is the director and evangelist at Speak Life Ministries, an evangelistic organisation (previously Youth for Christ's 'Hour of Revival') Speak life seeks to lift high the name of Jesus in the UK and beyond, to revive Christians, resource the church and reach the world with the good news of Jesus. For over 60 years this ministry has been speaking life to a perishing world. “Evangelism through revived Christians” was the way their founder, Eric Hutchings, put it.
