Podcast with Bill Federer on Muscular Christianity and Our Heritage
Topic: Courageous Christianity.
The movie “Chariots of Fire” has a famous line along the lines that “what we need today is a muscular Christianity.” This was from a character going back to England in the 1920s. The YMCA, the Young Men’s Christian Association, has been an organization that helps promote the idea of “muscular Christianity.” Bill Federer, a bestselling author and speaker, has written a new book (along with his son, Michael), called: Courageous Christianity – How a 19th century revival sparked the Muscular Christianity movement, Y.M.C.A. athletics, and a youth-led race to save the world. Bill Federer joins Jerry Newcombe to discuss “courageous Christianity.”
