Description

What if the cure for modern weakness, loneliness, and nihilism isn’t “progress” but a return to chivalry? In this episode of the Circle Dwellers podcast, Matt and Tim Krell argue that the medieval chivalric ideal—rooted in courage, virtue, duty, honor, and self-sacrifice—is exactly what today’s men and women need. Drawing from Maurice Keen’s Chivalry, Brad Miner’s The Complete Gentleman, and C.S. Lewis’s classic essay “The Necessity of Chivalry,” they show how modern culture has flattened manhood into something soft, passive, and anxious, while historic Christianity called men to be both dangerous and good. The brothers break down how true chivalry forms a whole person—warrior, lover, monk, and citizen—and how recovering these virtues can strengthen marriages, restore community, and reshape the church. If you’re tired of modern decadence, confused masculinity, and the loss of noble ideals, this conversation will inspire you to reject modernity and reclaim a Christian vision of heroic virtue.
