Please join us for our July meeting for a Video Presentation of Dr Mark T. Mitchell, Professor of Government Dean of Academic Affairs, Patrick Henry College. In a profound speech titled The Logos & the Tower of Babel given at PHC in Aug, 2024, Dr Mitchell shows what “make a name for ourselves” means, how the Babel spirit is in our culture, why Biblical creation is opposed, and that all Babel projects fail before the Logos. Group discussion following.

He is the author of several books including Plutocratic Socialism: The Future of Private Property and the Fate of the Middle Class; Power and Purity: The Unholy Marriage That Spawned America’s Social Justice Warriors; The Limits of Liberalism: Tradition, Individualism, and the Crisis of Freedom; The Politics of Gratitude: Scale, Place, and Community in a Global Age; and Michael Polanyi: The Art of Knowing.
