Intellect Riverina
Intellect aims to provide a platform for rigorous thinking about the Christian faith and its implications for our society.
Why Intellect Riverina?
Intellect Riverina is a ministry developed by local church leaders to engage people with intellectually compelling ideas about our world from a Christian perspective and how it relates to our lives. We believe the Christian faith withstands intellectual scrutiny and provides a framework for human flourishing. It points to answers relating to the scientific, social and moral questions of our day.

About the Topic: God and Politics
God and Politics: can they co-exist? Religion and politics are a controversial combination. Many people are alarmed at the intervention of religious voices in the public square. Aren't we supposed to live in a secular society? And yet it is impossible to ask people to leave their beliefs at the door. If Christians proclaim that Jesus is 'Lord', doesn't that have nakedly political ramifications? Theologian and author Dr Michael Jensen addresses these pertinent and pressing issues in this intriguing lecture. Event RegistrationStay in the Loop
