Listen "Reclaiming Heritage Day: Celebrating the Christian Roots of Society"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Peter Hammond reframes the upcoming South African Heritage Day (September 24th) as an opportunity to celebrate the nation's profound Christian heritage. He argues that the government's shift towards secular holidays like Human Rights Day and Youth Day overlooks the foundational Christian values that shaped Western and South African society.
Dr. Hammond traces the Christian origins of everyday concepts, from the seven-day week (based on Creation) and Sunday as a day of rest (commemorating the Resurrection) to words like "goodbye" (a contraction of "God be with you") and "restaurant" (derived from Jesus's invitation to find rest).
