About Dr Natasha Moore
Dr Natasha Moore is a senior researcher and trainer from the the Centre for Public Christianity, a Sydney based media company that serves the church by offering a Christian perspective on contemporary culture and public life.
Dr. Moore has a PhD in English Literature from the University of Cambridge and is the author of For the Love of God: How the church is better and worse than you ever imagined (the 2020 Australian Christian Book of the Year).
She has worked for the Centre of Public Christianity since 2014 and written and made presentations on topics that include books, movies, politics, food, domestic violence, scripture in schools, war, thanksgiving, the second World War, freedom of speech, death, and taxes.
We’ve been hearing a lot about how hostile Western culture has become towards the church. Dr. Moore’s presentation will consider the reality of this challenge, and at the same time offer some hopeful ways for us to respond. In the midst of polarisation, tribalism and much social upheaval we have the gospel of Jesus, and this enables us to make a crucial contribution to the common good as we witness to our faith.
Whether the culture is welcoming, apathetic, or hostile, Dr. Moore will invite us to recognize surprising places where God is inviting us to wade in and make a difference.
