Rod Dreher, author of ‘The Benedict Option’, addressed a meeting co-hosted by The Iona Institute and the Notre Dame Centre for Faith and Reason in the University Church on St Stephen's Green on 21st January to a capacity crowd of 350+ people. He discussed what Irish Christians needs to do to pass on the faith and live out the faith now that they are in a minority situation in their country, and in an increasingly indifferent and often hostile climate.
The Iona Institute have posted the text of his speech HERE.
His talk is an interesting read and while there may be many points people would disagree with him about it is an interesting and challenging analysis of the choices facing Christians in our modern post-Christian country. Something to generate some kitchen conversations!
