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.

It is very readable and accessible and will be valuable for a wide audience. He joins me to discuss it.
