In echoes of the end of the life of St Augustine of Hippo, The Vandals are at the gates- again. But this time they are at both the front and back gates of the Church.
Paul Kingsnorth, a recent convert to Orthodoxy and one of the more profound of our contemporary thinkers and writers, is warning the Church of a coming assault we need to prepare for beyond our present culture wars.
We need prophets in the Church, and one of the best is the philosopher Paul Kingsnorth. Former pagan, eco-activist and Buddhist, he reluctantly became Christian a few years ago. He embraced Eastern Orthodoxy and went to live in the depths of rural Ireland.
