Courage, Critique, and Contemporary Challenges
This chapter examines a historical commencement speech critiquing Western civilization, focusing on the themes of courage, virtue, and the role of God in modern life. It juxtaposes modern heroism against ideological frameworks that downplay the need for bravery, while also reflecting on the significance of humility and the complexities of sin. The discussion calls into question societal shifts around pride, political correctness, and the impact of these trends on personal and communal identities.
