Podcast appearances and mentions of Christian ethics

"Judeo-Christian" morality is a concept that's frequently thrown around in contemporary western culture. The problem? It doesn't really exist. That's why I asked friend of the show, Rabbi Geoff Mitelman, to return to Tillich Today to discuss Jewish Ethics, the Hebrew Bible, and the myth of Judeo-Christian values.

In this episode of I Thought You'd Like to Know This, Too, ITEST presents a webinarentitled  "Bioethics & AI as Human Flourishing: Where Catholic & Orthodox Social Teaching meet in One Christian Social Ethos" (June 14, 2025)Dr. Constantine PsimopoulosBIOETHICS AND AI AS HUMAN FLOURISHING: WHERE CATHOLICS AND ORTHODOX MEET IN ONE CHRISTIAN SOCIAL ETHOSConstantine Psimopoulos is a Professor (Adj.) of Bioethics at Hellenic College Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, teaching Christian Ethics and Social Ministries and is on the faculty at Harvard's Initiative on Health, Spirituality and Religion, of which he is also Senior Program Administrator, and the Human Flourishing program. He has another Academic research appointment in Global Health and Social Medicine and the Center for Bioethics at Harvard Medical School. At Harvard, he co-teaches the course Religion and Public Health and a new required module taught to all MD/PhD students. Constantine serves as the Director of the Division of Bioethics of the Orthodox Academy of Crete (Ecumenical Patriarchate), and as an Invited Member to the Inaugural National Committee on AI – Artificial Intelligence (and Theology) of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.AbstractThis presentation draws a comparison between Catholic social teaching and the Social ethos of the Orthodox church. Both traditions have some parallels in the way they approach AI, from a bioethical perspective that addresses social justice. The document ‘For the Life of the World' (F.L.O.W.) of our Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, emphasizes that science and technology are a wonderful product of a God-given human creativity, and that “the desire for scientific knowledge flows from the same wellspring as faith's longing to enter ever more deeply into the mystery of God.” It is an imperative to use AI for Human Flourishing. From a Christian bioethical lens, science and technology, and in particular Artificial Intelligence (AI), can serve as one concrete example of how this can be addressed.Fr. Michael Baggot, LCProgramming with Purpose: Guiding AI through Catholic Social TeachingFr. Michael Baggot is Legionary of Christ, an Associate Professor of Bioethics at the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum, and an Invited Professor of Theology at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (the Angelicum) and the Catholic Institute of Technology (CatholicTech). He also serves as a professor for the Joint Diploma in Leadership: Service through Virtues and the Catholic Worldview Fellowship summer program. In addition, Fr. Michael is a Research Scholar at the UNESCO Chair in Bioethics and Human Rights and a member of the Scholarly Advisory Board for Magisterium AI. He is also a fellow of the Fr. James L. Heft, SM Generations in Dialogue program at the Institute for Advanced Catholic Studies at the University of Southern California.AbstractAs an expert in humanity, the Catholic Church is deeply interested in the AI technologies that are shaping family life, education, medicine, religious practice, and other key aspects of social life. The presentation draws on the social doctrine of the Catholic Church to highlight the virtues and social structures most conducive to using AI tools to promote human flourishing. It gives special attention to the influence of AI companion systems on the loneliness epidemic and the quest for social connections. The conference also examines the significance of ecumenical dialogue, interreligious dialogue, and dialogue with secular traditions in addressing the perennial philosophical questions that emerging technologies raise.Bioethics and AI as Human Flourishing: Where Catholic and Orthodox Social Teaching meet in One Christian Social Ethos - Institute for Theological Encounter with Science and Technology

In this heartfelt and insightful sermon from Pastor Karl, we explore the biblical concept of the church as a family, drawing from 1 Timothy Chapter 5. Pastor Karl emphasizes that the church thrives on relationships, not rules, and celebrates the community's role in honoring milestones like graduations and new births. He highlights the importance of mentorship, showcasing how older generations mentor the younger ones in faith and character. Delving into 1 Timothy, Pastor Karl unpacks Paul's guidance to Timothy, a young leader in the challenging city of Ephesus, on how to lead the church family with honor and wisdom. Key themes include guarding the gospel, maintaining order, prioritizing character in leadership, and training diligently in faith. Pastor Karl addresses practical church responsibilities, such as caring for "true widows" with compassion and criteria, ensuring family members take primary responsibility for their kin. He also tackles the sensitive topic of honoring church leaders, advocating for fair compensation that balances care and accountability. Finally, Pastor Karl connects the concept of servitude to modern employer-employee relationships, urging Christians to work diligently for both earthly and heavenly masters, not out of duty, but out of love for Christ, who calls us friends. Join us for a compelling message on living out faith in community with honor, love, and purpose.Watch all our sermons on our YouTube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Pride Month is evil, and we must call it what it is. In this episode, we're discussing the spiritual implications of Pride Month, asking hard questions about what it represents—and how believers should respond. We're drawing the connection between pride, identity, and rebellion against God's design for human flourishing.Many Christians feel spiritually drained during this month, and we should. I'm challenging my listeners to love the LGBTQ+ community not with silence or compromise (and certainly not with support) but with truth—the truth that God offers forgiveness, transformation, and eternal life to all who repent and follow Christ.We must hate sin while praying for our enemies. Our culture desperately needs more holiness, conviction, and compassion rooted in the gospel, which is telling those around us the truth.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqBR_MWE2-fkYXYHCn80nZtEct4ixmRGrXZSrgIn5HP_tBc9Mcy

In this compelling sermon, Pastor Karl dives into 1 Timothy Chapter 2, continuing his verse-by-verse journey through the Bible. He emphasizes the importance of sound doctrine in guiding the church and individual Christians. Pastor Karl unpacks the big idea that God's ordering is not about oppression but orchestration, designed for our protection and flourishing. He explores Paul's instructions to the church, highlighting the roles of grace, prayer, and devotion in the life of a Christ-follower. Addressing the contested passages on gender roles, Pastor Karl grounds his teaching in Genesis, explaining God's design for maleness and femaleness within the family and church. With clarity and conviction, he calls the church to rest under Scripture, embrace biblical doctrine, and live out God's complementary design as a testimony to the world. This episode challenges listeners to align with God's order, fostering unity and purpose in the church.Watch all our sermons on our YouTube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Dr. Rob Blackaby, President & Professor of Christian Ethics & Spiritual Leadership at Canadian Baptist Theological Seminary and College, teaches at ClearView Baptist Church in Franklin, Tennessee.

Christian ethics should start with our position in Christ and be motivated by our understanding of that position.

Today, Mike and Tim discuss the implications of current events, the responsibilities of Christians towards marginalized communities, and the concept of cruciformity in relation to leadership and community engagement. The dialogue emphasizes the need for empathy, awareness, and a commitment to serving others in the face of societal challenges. In this conversation, Mike and Tim explore the transformation of church leadership and community through the lens of grace and cruciformity. They critique the consumer-driven metrics of success in churches, emphasizing the need for a shift towards a more authentic and vulnerable leadership style that prioritizes love and community over prestige and power. The discussion highlights the dangers of traditional leadership models and the importance of fostering a culture that values people and their growth. But first... Andor? Sinners? Beyonce'? "I am an individual with an inalienable bill of rights and constitutional freedoms; I am an American citizen, promised upward mobility and a shot at the American dream if I just work hard and believe in myself; I am a consumer of religious goods and services, church shopping until I find a church that meets my needs; I am engaged in a culture war that can only be won through the exercise of political power against my political opponents who are ruining our country..." or "I am one of the ‘holy ones,' and a minister,  formerly dead and enslaved, but now, because of the mercy of God, I am alive and rescued into a newly reconciled human community, called the church. Belonging now to the new humanity,  I am saved and transformed utterly by grace, so that the basis of all human boasting, status seeking, and rivalry has been removed.  I am therefore free to receive others as gifts and siblings."

Matthew J. Tuininga is Professor of Christian Ethics and the History of Christianity at Calvin Theological Seminary in Michigan. He is author or editor of several books, including most recently The Wars of the Lord: The Puritan Conquest of America's First People, which has been an important source for this podcast's series on King Philip's War. This episode is useful context not only for our series on King Philip's War, which is still very much in progress, but also many of the other stories we've told about early New England. We talk about the intersection of religion and war in 17th century Massachusetts, the sheer difficulty of colonialism, the evolution of Puritan evangelism in the decades between the landing of Mayflower and King Philip's War, the slow development of racialist thinking, the rise of racial hostility against Indians first among the settlers on the frontier to the distress of the Puritan elites in Boston, the influence, or not, of the younger generation of settlers and Indians on the coming of the war, whether Uncas of the Mohegans was a great and shrewed leader or merely treacherous, whether King Philip's War was inevitable, the "war guilt," or not, of Samuel Mosely and Edward Hutchinson, the wisdom of John Winthrop, Jr., whether King Philip's War was "worth it" from the perspective of the settlers, the influence of the fog of war on Puritan decisions, KPW as counterinsurgency, historical myths of recent vintage that inflate Christian Indian deaths, the validity of Native American oral tradition as an historical source, and the importance of narrative history in getting people excited about history.

From the basketball courts of North Carolina A&T to the halls of Fuller Seminary, Phil shares his remarkable journey from hoop dreams to a life dedicated to ministry, ethics, and racial healing.We explore his moving documentary “Open Wounds”, inspired by the tragic story of his grandfather—an untold chapter of racial violence that Phil discovered later in life. The film made its way to Sundance and now serves as a centerpiece for our discussion on generational trauma and redemption.We also dive into his powerful book, "The Prophetic Lens: The Camera and Black Moral Agency From MLK to Darnella Frazier", examining how the lens—literal and metaphorical—shapes our understanding of justice, especially in the wake of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and others.Topics include:Phil's transformation from athlete to scholar and poetLife at North Carolina A&TThe making of Open WoundsFaith, ethics, race, and cultureThe power of video and voice in modern civil rightsRunning as a spiritual and physical disciplineThis conversation is thoughtful, raw, and full of hope.

Gushee returns to discuss how Christians should respond to the erosion of democracy and the assault on marginalized groups in America. With record-low approval ratings from outside the Republican base, Donald Trump's return to power has raised alarm bells across university campuses, LGBTQ advocacy circles, and immigrant communities.In this episode, Gushee—one of the most respected voices in Christian moral theology—joins hosts Will Wright and Josh Burtram to unpack how Christian ethics should inform public life. From LGBTQ dignity to democratic values, Gushee urges Christians to reject fear-based politics and embrace foundational biblical norms: love, justice, dignity, and truth. He also explains how Christians can ethically engage without sacrificing their values—or their compassion.

Preaching for the Fifth Sunday of Lent, Dr. Nicole Symmonds offers a reflection on remembering and living our inherent dignity and value as God's beloved: "Today's lectionary readings show us what remembrance looks like and how to re-member ourselves as the body of Christ. In this re-remembrance, we bring ourselves, our own best things, to our work in faith for God's church and the world, bringing about justice and peace." Dr. Nicole Symmonds is the Assistant Professor of Christian Ethics at Columbia Theological Seminary. Her work sits at the intersection of Christian ethics and women, gender, and sexuality studies. She explores Black women's embodiment, particularly the practices of liberative embodiment they craft as a method of resistance to domination and as a simulation of freedom.

April 2, 2025 - Kyle Rye - Christian Ethics - A Financial Stewardship Ethic P2 by Buford Church of Christ

“For many educated Westerners,” writes today's guest, “ the idea that religion promotes violence and secularism ameliorates the problem is a settled certainty, a doxa, an unstated premise of right thinking. By no means do I deny that religious energies…can be turned toward destructive ends, especially by unscrupulous politicians in times of crisis and uncertainty… Nonetheless, concentration on or simply assuming religion's inclination toward violence insouciantly glides past a glaring reality of the twentieth century: namely, that regimes committed to secularism have not infrequently possessed just as much capacity for violence as, and often much more than, those tied to religious identity.” These are some of the observations with which Thomas Albert Howard begins his new book, Broken Altars: Secularist Violence in Modern History. It is a survey and a dissection of how certain types of secularism can lead to violence as furious as that of any religious fanatic.  Thomas Albert (Tal) Howard (Ph.D, University of Virginia) is professor of humanities and history and holds the Phyllis and Richard Duesenberg Chair in Christian Ethics at Valparaiso University. His previous books include The Faiths of Others: A History of Interreligious Dialogue (Yale University Press, 2021), which was the subject of our conversation in Episode 232 of this podcast. This is his third appearance on Historically Thinking; he also discussed the life and historical project of Jacob Burckhardt long, long ago in Episode 37.

Christian Ethics in a benefits SocietyExploring the Biblical Doctrine of WorkIn this talk, we attempt to establish a biblical basis for Christians to examine the important issue of work, and the place of work in our society. It's about the ethics of work, and the biblical doctrine of work, and about attitudes to work in our our nation. And that's where we start, for Christians are to live in a manner that is contrary to the prevailing culture in every respect. That includes our attitude to employment and to the current benefits culture.This episode was recorded at Templepatrick Reformed Church, and is reproduced here with their kind permission.

March 26, 2025 - Kyle Rye - Christian Ethics - A Financial Stewardship Ethic P1 by Buford Church of Christ

As of March 2025, Elon Musk, the richest person in the world according to Bloomberg, was valued to be worth 311 billion dollars. To help put this quantity in perspective: In order for the average middle-class person earning around $45,000 a year to earn even $1 billion, they would have to devote all their time to work, while spending nothing, for over 21,000 years—that is, longer than human history.  Given the extent of dire need across the world, it seems grossly unethical for anyone to have that kind of money. From a Catholic perspective, we need to take seriously not only concerns rooted in natural law ethics, regarding the flourishing of the person and the common good, but also traditional teachings about the moral obligations around money. Scripture is filled with warnings about the serious, possibly eternal punishments in store for those who hoard wealth at the expense of the poor. Does that mean billionaires are going to hell? On this episode of Glad You Asked, hosts Emily Sanna and Rebecca Bratten Weiss talk to moral theologian Nicholas Hayes-Mota about the Catholic Church's teaching on wealth and whether amassing vast amounts of money is a sin.  Hayes-Mota is a social ethicist and public theologian whose research interests include the theology of community organizing, Catholic social thought, contemporary virtue ethics, democratic theory, and AI ethics.    Read more about the ethics of wealth inequality: “Pope Francis: Powerful and Rich Risk Going to Hell If They Ignore the Poor,” by David Gibson “Why the wealth gap is bad for everyone.” A U.S. Catholic interview “Why wealth inequality matters,” by Kevin Clarke “The Universal Destination of Goods in St. John Chrysostom,” by Antônio Lemos Rerum Novarum (Rights and Duties of Capital and Labor), encyclical of Pope Leo XIII Populorum Progressio (On the Development of Peoples), encyclical of Paul VI Fratelli Tutti (On Fraternity and Social Friendship), encyclical of Pope Francis   Read more by Nicholas Hayes-Mota: “We need to reclaim the legacy of Christian nonviolence,” U.S. Catholic “Principle in Practice: A MacIntyrean Analysis of Community Organizing and the Catholic Social Tradition.” Journal of Catholic Social Thought “Partners in Forming the People: Jacques Maritain, Saul Alinsky, and the Project of Personalist Democracy.” Journal of Moral Theology “An Accountable Church?

How can religion help decode the motives for Russia's aggression against Ukraine? And how can Judeo-Christian ethics inform a way forward for peace? Ukrainian Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, and historian of Central European politics Timothy Snyder explore these questions.

We had Dr. Tim Gaines on the podcast last fall, after I discovered him while speaking at a Salvation Army event. Tim is a professor of religion at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, where he teaches courses in theology and ethics and directs the graduate program in theology and biblical studies. He also serves as a pastor at Trevecca Community Church and as the director of The Center for Wesleyan-Holiness Formation, which serves the Church by advocating for scholarship in the Wesleyan tradition. Dr. Gaines has coauthored and co-edited multiple previous titles, including Walking the Theological Life, Kings & Presidents (a book on politics and the Kingdom of God), and a book simply called Christian Ethics. I knew when we talked last time that we'd want him back so this time we'll talk about moral formation, ethics, the reason for theology, and even get a second dose of secularity.

The advances in AI have skyrocketed, with more and more people beginning to make use of it in everyday life. In time, AI will have a monumental effect on society at virtually every level. As such, questions about the ethics and theology of artificial intelligence. are no longer speculative, but are right here on our doorstep. How should Christians respond? What positives are there in AI? Where can it help relieve unnecessary burdens? Where are the increasing dangers too? As AI gets smarter, do we get dumber? How do think theologically about AI? How does sin factor into AI? If we create AI in the image of sinful humans, are we unleashing something capable of ever greater destruction? Could AI become "self-aware" at some point? If so, how would we categorise it? Is AI capable of "good" or "bad" moral actions? Questions truly do abound!

Message from Kevin Moses on February 22, 2025

The nuclear family is the backbone of a strong society—without it, we will crumble. In this episode, we're talking about Elon Musk's latest love child with Ashley St. Clair and why Conservatives cannot fall into the trap of normalizing single motherhood and reckless men who create broken families. Strong individuals come from strong families. When the family unit collapses, people become weak, directionless, and ultimately easier for the government to exploit. The more broken the home, the more dependent the individual. And guess who loves that? The people in power who want control over your life. So, we are talking biblical gender roles, marriage, family, and why morals will always matter—even if they stop mattering to everyone else. A father's leadership and a mother's nurturing aren't interchangeable, and no amount of modern delusion will change that. Children need both a mother and a father in the home. And no, morals don't change for you once you're rich. Wh*re culture needs to die because the next generation is at stake.--https://policecoffee.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooc599VmOCGa3oE2DnVcJ4uLA69XDoBZf8ChiOpFqVfKc_BASiR
