Alexsy Felix, host of the Chaos and Christ podcast, joins me to discuss the recent Balenciaga fiasco and whether or not there is a deeper significance to it than just child exploitation. How should Christians interpret the rise of sexual confusion and deviancy over the last decade? Alexsy then shares about a project he is working on, a business that he's started called Chaos Resistance Fitness - a company targeted at men and developing the discipline needed to resist the chaos around them, starting with those love handles.

Nathan and I are back after an extended hiatus! Hitting the road hard with our takes on Halloween, All-Refor-Thanks-Fest, and the question whether or not it is appropriate to take immediate practical application from Jesus' parables. The parable of the dishonest manager is one that is not so easy to exposit. It's sandwiched between the parable of the prodigal son and the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, two parables that at a deeper level are about Israel… Is there something deeper going on with this parable and is there any application for us as businessmen and productive people?

New guest and new co-host. Kentrell Barnes co-pilots this episode where we discuss postmillenialism and film making with Nathan Anderson, creator of the documentary ‘On Earth as It Is in Heaven' and the docu-series ‘Teach All Nations' (now on LOOR.tv). Kentrell is an experienced videographer/writer and helps me dig into the specifics of the craft with Nathan regarding his experience creating his breakout documentary.

The inflation reduction act is a clear example of political marketing if there ever was one. Nathan and I talk through the implications of what this maneuver means for a civilized society.

Right at the outset I've likely triggered a majority of my readers just by the title of this article. I think we can attribute that partially to our cultural knee-jerk reaction to “emote first, ask questions later” and partially to the unstable political climate which we've created in this here land of the free-ish. Let me make a clarification, healthcare is a positive right and positive rights do not exist.

Sri Lanka is in dire straights. Dutch farmers have grown a backbone. The world economic forum is quaking in its boots. But has the poison of communism already taken to the arteries of global society? Connor Neville joins me again but this time, picking up where we left off last time, tackling the question how do we combat global communism as it is being dictated to the nations of the world? We explore this new (to us) economic/political ideology called Distributism, or Subsidiarity. Can we have a economic system that embraces the virtues of individualism while also obligating him to higher duty? And can this sort of system that introduces obligations and duty be founded on any system other than the biblical one? Nope. --------------------------------------------------------- Dutch Farmer Protests https://dailycaller.com/2022/07/05/dutch-farmers-fighting-esg-policies/ What is Distributism? https://theimaginativeconservative.org/2014/06/what-is-distributism.html 4 points of Distributism Faith has to be at the center Cornerstone is the family (state / indiv) Calling - not just for me (community) Calling to place - against nomadism --------------------------------------------------------------- Ekklesia Design www.ekklesiadesign.com Good Fight Outfitters www.goodfightoutfitters.com All things Christ and Capital: ———————-SUBSCRIBE https://linktr.ee/Christ_and_Capital Merch https://www.christandcapital.com/apparel ———————————————————————————————— Music By: SUNDANCE Track Title: Persephone - Retro Funky Creation: SUNDANCE (Remix) My additions: clips from Jay Richards, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Gary Vaynerchuk, Jeff Durbin, and Gary North.
Roe v. Wade has been overturned! It is a glorious day and it is time to praise God for his faithfulness. There's more to do, but now is a time of celebration. There are common arguments that you are going to hear from the left/unbelievers in the battle ahead so let's think through them now (miscarriages, poor kids, life of the mother, clump of cells, my body/my choice, women's rights, wHite men & guns) with the understanding that the very first and primary reason for opposing abortion is that God says thou shalt not murder. ———————————————————— Abortion is anti-capitalism https://www.christandcapital.com/christ-and-capital/abortion-is-anti-capitalism ———————————————————— New College Franklin Newcollegefranklin.edu Good Fight Outfitters www.goodfightoutfitters.com All things Christ and Capital: ———————-SUBSCRIBE https://linktr.ee/Christ_and_Capital Merch https://www.christandcapital.com/apparel ———————————————————————————————— Music By: SUNDANCE Track Title: Persephone - Retro Funky Creation: SUNDANCE (Remix) My additions: clips from Jay Richards, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Gary Vaynerchuk, Jeff Durbin, and Gary North.

Roe v. Wade is poised to being overturned in the near future and the screeching has begun. Every Christian needs to be ready to give a reasoned defense not only for the hope that is in them but also for their pro-life/abolitionist values. Note: you cannot separate your values from your faith in Christ, it's not possible. Nathan and I talk through the current events related to Roe and Casey, and then dig deep into the philosophical underpinnings propping up the abortion discussion.

Deconstruction is a term that is thrown around a lot today, but what does it mean? Lots of definitions and a lot of talking past one another.

Environmentalism, environmental alarmism, global warming, global cooling, climate change, and other sundry pseudonyms. How should a Christian think about this phenomenon from a worldview and political perspective? Christians should be the most environmentally conscious human beings, while also properly prioritizing creation, mankind, and God. Scripture References: Genesis 9 - 22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease. Romans 8 - 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. Romans 1 - 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. 24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever!

He brings his insights into what he thinks is a big barrier to entry into ministry for a lot of 9-5 Christians and how he helping other to bridge that gap. This is only one of his enterprises as he also teaches on artistic preaching, he has a social media project to bring classical music to public consciousness, and also advises on Christian networking. This is a value packed episode. Enjoy.

Collectivism vs individualism. What does the OT have to tell us about corporate relationships? Does that have any implication for the way we approach reparations today? Is reparations for American Slavery and Jim Crow-style government policies a worthy pursuit? Bible bits: Christmas is about Barren Women and serpents. The Bible communicates in images, types, archetypes, and themes. There are a ton of these on the Christmas narrative.

Coming off the tail end of an episode with David Bahnsen about his new book ‘There's No Free Lunch; 250 Economic Truths', Nathan and I sit down to discuss the first section. Specifically, the relationship of human flourishing and economic freedom. It is important that we start with the correct foundations, else, it's garbage in, garbage out. Who is God, what is a human being, how should we view our work in light of that?

David Bahnsen gifts Christ and Capital a few minutes of his time to talk about his new book, ‘There's No Free Lunch; 250 Economic Truths'. Not only do we talk about the inspiration behind the book but we also dive into the worldview implications of economics and how important our theological and anthropological assumptions are to our reasoning about markets. David also gives us a little hint into what his next book will be about.

Nathan's back and we're talking Thomas Sowell again. Specifically, the chapter on risk and insurance in his book Basic Economics. Three points / misunderstandings to address when talking about risk: 1.) Properly placed risk pressures economic actors to make the right decision. (Skin in the game) --(https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/10/bernies-not-so-subtle-single-payer-plot/?fbclid=IwAR3MygsmryAc-IjRpnsLRX4NfEKXKTvHdu-1pCbCE_T1svxf5BXmS-Jpnsk) 2.)

Another Bible Bits episode. This time Nathan and I talk about how Mountains help communicate a deeper, more subliminal message in the scriptures. Once we start seeing all the different ways that the Bible communicates its message (such as in the thematic trope of ‘Mountains'), it becomes all the more sweeter and enchanting. Short and to the point. These are meant to stoke interest in further study and not necessarily to layout a detailed theological lesson.

What types of things can virtual assistants do, how do they charge, and what the value add is for engaging a virtual assistant for your small business.

...But of all these reaching arguments listed above, the fundamental underlying reason, in this author's mind, is that pro-choicers actually think it's not human until it meets their own criteria of what constitutes human life - brain activity, viability (whatever that means), sentience, heartbeat, appearance, etc. May we never see the day where our elected officials can customize their views on what constitutes human life for political or economic expedience.

This past independence day really opened our eyes to the cultural and ideological rifts that have arisen in the United States, so Nathan and Dustin talk through how the Church should process it all. Bibles, guns, American flags, apple pie, baseball, and picket fences. Have these things gotten dangerously close to mixing with the identity of the Church? Is it right and good to be a patriotic Christian? Can you love your country and the ideals it stands for? What are the pitfalls? Is it appropriate to place national flags in the worship service?

Jeremy Collins from the Theonomoney podcast joins me on this second installment of a two-part series on theonomy and taxation. Go over to the Theonomoney podcast and check out part 1 on Theonomy as we set the stage for the discussion on taxation. When it comes to taxation, the three main questions that need to be answered are (1) who has the authority and jurisdiction to levy taxes, (2) how much taxation is permissible, and (3) what method of taxation would be most compatible with a Biblical society (flat vs progressive)? We discuss the Biblical passages that seem to address taxation and talk through the pros and cons (mainly cons) of common types of taxes in modern society.

It's episode 50! Nathan and I celebrate by taking on one of the more heavy topics of scripture and try to address some in-house concerns. Penal Substitution and the justice and wrath of God, Christ's victory of sin, death and Satan, and the how Christ's death and resurrection corrects Adam's failure, all of these are aspects of the Atonement that should not be put at odds with one another.
