Godless Country Series by Archbishop Fisher

Are we living in a Godless country? Though there are strong forces that would tell us the age of religion is past, Archbishop Anthony Fisher is not so sure...

In this lecture series the Archbishop suggests that, though we have both post-Christian and Christian strands in our society, neither is an appropriate term for contemporary Australia. He then concludes that reality is the opposite: Christianity is yet to have its heyday, and so we are ‘pre-Christian’.
