The Christians for Liberty 2014 Conference has come and gone, but now we get to post the videos from the conference for everyone to see.

David Theroux gave the afternoon keynote of the conference. David is the President of both the Independent Institute and the C.S. Lewis Society of California. In this presentation, David speaks of Lewis’s views on the state, morality, and the role of Christians in society. Though C.S. Lewis was not an avowed libertarian, he certainly reflected many similar views and has much influence on current Christian libertarian thought. I hope that after hearing this talk you will have a new appreciation for the foresight of C.S. Lewis regarding the evils of statism.
