039 Dr. Matthew Rowley - Political Theology & the Foundations of Government | Dialogue Over Divisiontions of Government | Dialogue Over Division

What happens when theology, ideology, and governance collide? In this thought-provoking episode of
Dialogue over Division, Dr. Matthew Rowley unpacks the deep and often overlooked connections between political theology and the systems that shape our society. From conservatism’s call to preserve tradition to liberalism’s drive for reform and libertarianism’s push for individual liberty, Dr. Rowley breaks down the core principles of modern ideologies—and why understanding them is more critical than ever.

We explore how COVID-19 exposed the tension between liberty and authority, and how the historical roles of the church and monarchy continue to shape our politics today. Dr. Rowley doesn’t shy away from tough questions: Has the Westminster system lost its integrity? Has the Governor General's role been diminished? And how can populism be used as a force for good rather than chaos?

In an era where political accountability is elusive and public trust is eroding, Dr. Rowley offers a compelling call for honor, responsibility, and engagement in leadership. With insightful reflections on law, governance, and civic duty, this episode offers both critique and hope for our democratic future.
From monarchy to misrule, and from populism to principled leadership—this is one episode you do not want to miss.
