"We" have not been turning away from "our" Christian heritage. "We" are the remnant that remembers and keeps it. We are the salt of the nation.
Most sincere Christians are viewing history from a pessimistic futurist view. They see everything getting worse. They know that the Antichrist etc. is coming soon. But we should also see that through history God has preserved and built up His Church. And that through history God has done so many things to thwart evil purposes.
Things might go down for some nations because of the failures of the Church in those nations, and we know that Bible prophecy indicates that some nations are to have bad things happen to them, e.g. Russia, nevertheless, we should not think that God has abandoned us or that proper revival is never coming for those who tarry for it.
