In this episode of The Lancaster Patriot Podcast, Chris Hume contrasts statist slavery with biblical servitude and looks at a section of Leviticus 25. The ugly truth is that the United States has the fourth-highest incarceration rate on earth (behind only El Salvador, Cuba, and Rwanda), nearly 2 million souls locked in cages, a 70+% recidivism rate, and a system that turns petty offenders into lifetime wards of the state — all funded by your taxes. Most damning of all: the modern prison-industrial complex is the direct antithesis of the biblical law concerning servants. While man-made law locks men up for years with no path to restitution and no hope of restoration, God’s Law offers a different path.

A couple weeks after their ⁠public debate⁠, Chris Hume (Christian) and Wilson Whiting (atheist) sat down to continue their conversation. The first hour largely focuses on biblical servitude, before the conversation transitions to morality and epistemology.

Chris Hume follows up on his recent public debate with atheist Wilson Whiting by addressing the common atheist argument against biblical slavery. A common tactic among atheists is to simply read biblical law and watch Christians squirm. But this only happens because the church has not been taught to understand and love the Law of God. This episode will equip you to respond to the common atheist objection: "The Bible endorses slavery."Watch the HUME vs. WILSON Debate: https://youtu.be/Bu1d-s7B17U?si=mQIdveH0G9zD0Hla

The untimely death of Charlie Kirk has sent waves of grief and reflection across the American landscape, placing the intersection of faith and public life center stage. In this episode of The Lancaster Patriot, Chris Hume offers five essential biblical guideposts for Christians navigating the conversation surrounding Kirk’s public memorial service and the state of Christianity in American conservatism. While celebrating the powerful public witness and proclamation of the Gospel at the service, we also need to apply necessary biblical discernment, asking: What does this event reveal about the depth and focus of modern American Christianity? Is the movement truly centered on the Law-Word of God, or human principles?
