“An honest assessment of the spiritual ground we inhabit begins by acknowledging the criticisms many Canadians have about the church are valid…when it comes to the struggles of declining Christianity, Canada has been here before.” 

 
 

Make it stand

James Tyler Robertson

Assistant Professor of Christian History, Tyndale University

This presentation explains the course of churches in Canada that led to the realities of this present age.

In 5 acts, James Tyler Robertson will explore the most important elements of Canadian religious life that most of us have overlooked.

We will lay bare the funny, tragic, poignant, diabolical, beautiful, dramatic and-above all else-unique stories that created the place known as Canada.

We dive into the role the church played in shaping the nation for good and for ill.

Beginning in the early days of this land this presentation will seek to answer one question: What is the Gospel?

Actually, it will seek to answer an even deeper question: What is the Gospel in Canada?

Join us for an engaging presentation as we dive into 5 strange stories that have defined us all and that many of us have OVERLOOKED

 

Limited copies of Overlooked will be available for purchase. If you would like to reserve a copy, please let us know.
