Every two or three weeks, Susannah and I will post on our free Substack, The Anchored Argosy. Within our posts, we give an update on our news, share some photos, and provide links to recent things we have produced. In each post, I will also usually share some thoughts on a subject that has been on my mind over the period. In our latest Substack post, I shared some thoughts on Aaron Renn’s recent book, Life in the Negative World: Confronting Challenges in an Anti-Christian Culture. I also recorded an audio form of the reflection which is available on YouTube and on my podcast.

Digital Liturgies (with Samuel James)
Digital Liturgies: Rediscovering Christian Wisdom in an Online Age is a superb new book by Samuel James. Within it he explores some of the ways that the Internet, especially social media, is shaping us and what we might do about this. It is very readable and accessible and will be valuable for a wide audience. He joins me to discuss it.

Andrew Wilson, one of the hosts of Mere Fidelity, has (another!) new must-read book, Remaking the World: How 1776 Created the Post-Christian West. We discuss his book and the significance of the late eighteenth century for understanding the world we live in.
