Rod Dreher: Live Not By Lies

The King of Stuff welcomes Rod Dreher, senior editor at The American Conservative, and formerly of the New York Post and National Review. He has authored several books including the best-selling The Benedict Option and How Dante Can Save Your Life. His new book is titled Live Not By Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents.

For years, émigrés from the former Soviet bloc have been telling Rod they see telltale signs of “soft” totalitarianism cropping up in America–something more Brave New World than Nineteen Eighty-Four.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can’t happen in their country. Many American Christians are making that mistake today, sleepwalking through the erosion of our freedoms. Live Not By Lies will wake them and equip them for the long resistance.

    Just downloaded this to listen – Rod was once kind enough to exchange a couple of emails with me, must have been 7-8 years ago, I think related to a blog post I had written and something he had written.  Can’t remember exactly why now, but it was great of him to respond.

    Thanks. This was very good. I plan to post the link to it later on my FB page.
