Our Book Study Leader, Susan Brinkmann, will read with you as Fr. Longenecker exposes the philosophies behind scientism, materialism, utilitarianism, sentimental humanitarianism, and more, explaining how they became the core assumptions of our culture and how they are, in turn, corrupting the politics and power structures of the world. Through study questions and online weekly discussion you will unpack this book with Susan and the group and learn the plan of action to behead the Hydra!The plan calls for neither direct conflict nor dialogue, but creative subversion. You’ll discover powerful and practical actions you and your friends can take now. And also learn how to acquire the grace needed to see the problem clearly — and the solutions. It is ordinary men and women who become extraordinary heroes in this battle against Satan, explains Fr. Longenecker. Only by the light of our lives will we defeat this darkness.
