Anderson talks on cultural breakdown

Former Deputy Prime Minister in the Howard government John Anderson AC will be in Sunshine Beach to speak at a Men’s Breakfast hosted by the Anglican Church of Noosa on 9 July.

The breakfast will be held at the Sunshine Beach Surf Club on Wednesday 9 July at 8am.

Mr Anderson describes himself as “a man of simple Christian faith”.

He spent 10 years in cabinet and left politics with the deep respect of his colleagues on both sides of the house. Prime Minister John Howard extolled him saying: “I have not met a person with greater integrity in public life”.

As a former senior legislator, Mr Anderson is concerned about political and public life and has remained active in the public square through interviews on his website johnanderson.net.au. and YouTube channel, which enjoys a subscription list in excess of 600,000, and has attracted more than 200 million YouTube downloads. He holds various directorships, is a sought-after speaker in both Australia and abroad and is active in the not-for-profit sector.

As important as good policy is, Mr Anderson now sees our biggest challenge is that of cultural break down. His Men’s Breakfast talk is titled “Australia Stumbling”.

John Anderson is a Companion in the Order of Australia, an honorary member of the Academy of Technology and Engineering, and holds a Masters in History from the University of Sydney.

He currently farms on the family property whilst also being active in his podcast series and on his website.

Tickets cost a very reasonable $28 for a hot buffet breakfast. Bookings are strong for this popular event and close on Monday 30 June. Book online at anglicanchurchnoosa.org. or call 07 5449 8009.
