King Charles: Defender of the Faith or Destroyer of Its Foundations?
With Allan and Corri Hunsperger · Guest: Leighton Grey
King Charles III is supposed to be the Defender of the Faith. But is Britain's monarch abandoning his responsibility to defend Christianity? Constitutional lawyer Leighton Grey discusses the King's embrace of religious pluralism, the erosion of Christian foundations within the Church of England, and what it means for Canada. Allan and Corri examine why so many Christian institutions have surrendered to political ideology and whether the church has become more concerned with pleasing the world than standing firm in biblical truth.
