ON THIS EPISODE:
WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH ABORTION AT THE SUPREME COURT? (0:00-17ish)
I want to revisit some of the oral arguments heard a couple weeks ago at the Supreme Court, including concerns about the Court's credibility, precedents, using viability as an abortion principle, and a lot more. We also need to imagine the world where abortions are a lot less common. That leaves us in need of a strong, sacrificial, Biblical church, ready to serve and give.
WHY DOES FREEDOM LEAD TO PROSPERITY? (17ish-33ish)
I'll provide the irrefutable numbers -- where there is freedom, humans flourish more. It is in free places that standards of living are higher, environment are cleaner, neighborhoods are more secure, and lives are longer. Why is this true, though?
Here's what I'll posit: human freedom is part of God's design for humanity. So, where governments remain restrained and limited, they follow the good design of God -- whether they know it or not.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter firstly that freedom WORKS. It matters that living in accordance with God's design will, by nature, lead to better outcomes.
TWO QUESTIONS: SHOULD WE EAT MEAT & WHY DOES THE BIBLE SAY THAT THING ABOUT WOMEN COVERING THEIR HEADS? (33ish-43ish)
I was recently asked these two questions. The Bible certainly doesn't prohibit meat-eating; however, it's worth asking if HOW we eat meat is ethical. After that, I'll provide the PRINCIPLE we should practice in response to the specific situation Paul wrote about to the Corinthians (women covering their head while speaking).
WE HAVE A CRIME PROBLEM (43ish-50ish - end of show)
God gave us governments, in part, to punish evil. Some governments in the US have largely ceased their core job of enforcing laws. The people most hurt by this are the most vulnerable among us. I have details.
