#90 The Meaning of History: A Christian Perspective | Guest: Mike D'Virgilio


Listen Later

In this episode of the Worldview Legacy podcast, Joel Settecase and author Mike D'Virgilio discuss the theological significance of history from a Christian worldview.

The conversation covers topics from the biblical roots of Western civilization, the impact of key historical figures like Alfred the Great and St. Patrick, to contemporary political events and their spiritual implications.
Mike shares insights from his book, 'Going Back to Find the Way Forward,' which offers a comprehensive look at history through a Christian lens, ultimately aimed at equipping men to lead their families and defend their faith.
