  • The WallBuilders Show - Is Honest Money A Moral Issue - with Kevin Freeman

    History gets rewritten the same way money gets devalued: slowly, then all at once. From a hallway conversation in Boston to a deep dive on gold and inflation, we follow the thread that connects cultural narratives, civic education, and what families can actually afford when the dollar keeps losing purchasing power. We also talk about why verifying claims is often embarrassingly easy, yet still ignored, and why that’s one reason we keep telling the “honest story” of America.

    Then we sit down with Kevin Freeman, host of Economic War Room and author of Pirate Money, to tackle a topic most pastors never hear in seminary but the Bible speaks to directly: honest weights and measures. Kevin explains why fiat currency is easy to manipulate, how inflation quietly transfers wealth, and why gold and silver have served as money from Genesis to Revelation. We break down what money is supposed to do and why the dollar struggles as a store of value over time.

    The conversation turns practical and timely with the rise of transactional gold. We explore how states can move under Article 1, Section 10, what it looks like to store vaulted gold and spend against it, and why this could “democratize” access to sound money beyond people who can afford large bars. If you’re looking for a biblical perspective on economics, a constitutional view of money, and real steps that can help protect your family from inflation, this one will stretch your thinking.
