YouTube description

In this episode, I talk to Professor Alec Ryrie, renowned historian of Christianity and author of Protestants, to explore the harrowing intersection of Christianity and Nazi Germany. As we look back at the "Age of Hitler," we ask the difficult questions: How did the church fail, who were the few who resisted, and how does this history shape the way we live out our values today?

Professor Ryrie provides a masterclass on historical integrity, discussing the "moral revolution" of the 20th century and how the legacy of the World Wars continues to influence modern secular and religious thought.

Key Topics Covered:

The Rise of "German Christians" vs. The Confessing Church.

The moral crisis of the 1930s and 40s.

How the "Age of Hitler" redefined modern ethics.

Lessons for Christians navigating political extremism today.
