30: The Dawson Society - Conference on the Home 2025, with Dr. Tom Gourlay

“the suburbs ought to be either glorified by romance and religion or else destroyed by fire from heaven, or even by firebrands from the earth.” – G. K. Chesterton 

 

That is the first line you'll read on the event information page for the upcoming conference in Perth WA, from the 10th -12th July. The event is called, "Home; Family, Place, Economics", and is being brought to you by The Dawson Society. https://dawsonsociety.org.au/event/home-conference/ 

Tom Gourlay from The Dawson Society joins me to discuss the event, which is compelling in the sense that it's exploring the meaning of home, and what that looks like in today's culture, whether that's as a nation, a community, a family, and even as an individual. 

Listen to Tom as he shares some fascinating bits of history, insights into culture and how it's shaped and changed, and the importance of studying and understanding these concepts and applications in a world that often moves quickly past into the 'next best thing' without paying heed to lessons from yesteryear.
