To equip Christians in the task of defending and advancing Christendom, we are providing a growing collection of online resources. Since the battle against paganism in the contemporary West is largely intellectual, these resources aim to equip Christians to stand firm against the onslaught of pagan ideas such as materialism, relativism, socialism, Darwinism, pseudo-Christian movements, postmodernism, Keynesianism, nihilism, feminism, revolutionary political ideologies and other ideas that have been  eroding the fabric of Christendom.

We also provide an array of offensive weapons to solidify Christians in a better understanding of their faith. In our age of individualism, it is easy to view everything through the lens of personal salvation with no understanding of the need to build a Christian civilization that will last for thousands of years. Worse still, many Christians believe that the institutions and culture of Christendom are a Constantinian innovation and hardly a worthy goal for the 21st century church. We would prefer to wait to be ‘raptured’ away from the earth, working to get as many people saved in the meantime, than to follow King Alfred’s example of building a Christian society that will endure for future generations. The Alfred the Great Society provides the resources and theology to combat these erroneous ideas about the Christian vocation.

• From Revivalism to Secularism (Evangelicalism and Secularism part 3)

  In the 19th and 20th century, a new type of 'secularism' emerged as evangelicals began reviewing culture as an autonomous organism independent of any religious moorings. American culture was becoming secularized by default as soon as Americans embraced the unconscious dualism inherent in the false disjunction between Christ and culture.

• Republicanizing the American Religion (Evangelicalism and Secularism part 2)

  In 18th century, evangelical Christianity became virtually indistinguishable from the political ideals of republicanism, setting the stage for a complete redefinition of the secular.
