On this Episode:

RESURRECTION DAY (Easter) REFLECTION (0:00-9:02)

The seminal hours of human history took place on a Passover weekend in Jerusalem just over 2,000 years ago. We’ll take a brief look at what Jesus’s work on the cross dis for us.

ALL THE SLIPPERY SLOPE ARGUMENTS OF THE 2000s ARE PROVING TRUE (9:02-23:00ish)

The slippery slope is technically a logical fallacy, but I’m finding that arguments made in the 2000s about where we were heading as a culture on sexuality and marriage are all proving to be true. One of the arguments made back then as well would be that, eventually, churches and Christian organizations who wouldn’t acquiesce to current cultural mores would be marginalized and demonized. I’ll provide a recent example of that happening in college basketball.

RENEWED ARGUMENTS ON THE FILIBUSTER (23:00ish-32:38)

I have been a longtime defender of the filibuster – no matter which party has the majority. It’s an important tool AGAINST radicalism on all sides and FOR stability on every side. I offer some new arguments and cautions regarding the filibuster.

A QUICK THOUGHT ON WOMEN’S SPORTS (32:38-42:50)

A women’s soccer player said recently she is paid less for doing the same job as a man. Is that correct? And what deeper lessons can we learn from a recent conversation around equality in sports?

THE MEDIA IS OUR MOST CORRUPT INSTITUTION (42:50-50:10)

There is corruption every where – government (both parties), corporate America, the legal system, religious systems, entertainment – absolutely every where. I’ll make the case that the media, though, is our most corrupt institution.
