Ep. 93: The Economy and Fertility Rates: Are They Connected?


Listen Later

Recently, (and for the last four years) a lot of Americans have voiced their concern about the current state of the economy. It seems the cost of basic survival: food, shelter, and water has just continued to increase. Host Joseph Backholm is joined by The Washington Stand's Ben Johnson for a discussion surrounding the question: What causes an economy to grow or decline? Is there any connection with fertility rate? Joseph and Ben reflect on the spiritual value of an economy, analyze failed economic predictions from 50 years ago, offer a biblical way to think about the economy, and address the declining fertility rate in America.
