David T. Koyzis, a fellow in politics at St. George’s Centre for Biblical and Public Theology, will be speaking at Iowa State on Thursday, February 7.

Koyzis will present a lecture titled, “It’s All About Me: Left, Right and Liberalism in the Public Life.”

Koyzis’ lecture will be hosted by the Areopagus Student Fellowship.

“As an organization, Areopagus seeks to reflect the ongoing relevance of the Christian gospel and reformed worldview into all aspects of life, and so our lectures are aimed at creating spaces for dialogue and discussion about the intersections of faith, culture, and academia,” said Tyler Helfers, director of ministry at Areopagus campus ministry.

In his lecture, Koyzis will explain why the terms “political left” and “political right” hide the dominance of liberal individualism. He will also describe the means of the liberal agenda and advancing it.

Koyzis hopes to discuss and teach ways Americans can come together for the greater good, according to the Iowa State Lectures website.

Areopagus calls Koyzis “an example of an individual who has reflected, written, and taught on the important topic of political philosophies and their implications for public life.”

“In our highly polarized political climate, Areopagus believes that in bringing a Christian critique of the problems we face, this lecture can help move us forward in thinking creatively and effectively about how to bring about human flourishing,” Helfers said.
