He examines how a society once anchored by Christian values, social stability, and strong family structures has deteriorated since the 1960s, leading to today's political movement demanding 'we want our country back.' Drawing on his childhood memories of chapel life, community trust, and biblical literacy, Dr. Patrick analyzes the cultural consequences of abandoning traditional foundations. He discusses the challenges of multiculturalism, the breakdown of family structures, and the loss of moral authority that once provided social cohesion in British communities. 🎬 Watch the video version: https://youtu.be/CYJvMu-Pe68 // LINKS // Website: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/ Podcast: https://doctorjohnpatrick.podbean.com/ Biblical Literacy Quiz: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/meaning-metaphor-and-allusion/ Recommended Reading list: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/book-list/ Ask Doctor John: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/ask/ LINKS: https://beacons.ai/doctorjohnpatrick
