Russell Moore (PhD) is back on the podcast to speak on “convictional kindness” and how to apply it in a divisive culture. The conversation draws from 2 Timothy 2 where the apostle Paul instructs Christians to "be kind to everyone" and to "correct opponents with gentleness." Can Paul's instruction to Christians work in our own time when we face hostility? And what factors influence our ability to embody kindness that leads to change, especially during times when we enter into disagreement on hot social issues such as transgenderism, abortion, race, or immigration? Today's episode is a collaborative effort. Scott Rae, co-host of the Think Biblically podcast, joins Tim for this discussion with Dr. Russell Moore.Shows notes and a full transcript are available.

The overturning of Roe V. Wade in the summer of 2022 shocked advocates of both the Pro-Life and the Pro-Abortion movements. But how has the reversal impacted the fight for life? In this week's episode, our friend and guest host, Dr. Sean McDowell, and leading Christian ethicist, Dr. Scott Rae, discuss the aftermath of the Roe V. Wade reversal and how this decision will shape the future of abortions in America. Tune in as Sean and Scott update us on advancements within the Pro-Life movement as well as help us learn how to address common arguments in favor of abortion. They also answer questions like: What is the significance of the RU486 abortion pill? Should men have the right to vote against abortion? Is abortion healthcare? What are the health risks of late term abortion? How can the Church make a difference?   Many moms turn to abortion out of desperation, overlooking the consequences that have a lasting impact on their physical and mental health. This is the Church's opportunity to get involved and show these moms that there is hope even in the midst of unplanned and unwanted pregnancies.

f you've never had a discussion with Plato, well, strap in, because that's what we have here. Journey with us on the story of tenured Philosophy professor (in Ohio) Dr. Alex Plato. Born and baptized PC USA (a "liberal" Protestant denomination, Presbyterian) in Oregon, Plato had a special science teacher at a public high school that taught him young earth creationism and some apologetics. Though his dad did not believe, his mother did, and took the family out of the liberal church into a more Biblically solid Baptist church. This led to the young Plato attending college at a Baptist college, where, in his words, "I tried to become an atheist." He was unsuccessful in that endeavor. He discovered apologetics, then philosophy, which naturally led him to the Mecca of Apologetics and Philosophy at the Masters level, Southern California, where Dr. Dallas Willard lived and taught for several decades (USC), mentoring dozens of PhD activist (my word--in a good way) scholars, activists for the truth, evidence, and common sense. Alex attended and graduated from Biola University in Lost Angeles County still not an atheist -- a failed atheist -- on a journey to a deeper Protestant faith. There, his Dallas-Willard-trained epistemologist mentor, Dr. R. Douglas Geivett, Ph.D., introduced him to Dietrich von Hildrebrand, Dallas-Willard trained ethicist Dr. Scott Rae, Ph.D., introduced him to Elizabeth Anscombe's defense of traditional morality, and a theologian introduced him to the Oxford historian and historical Jesus defender N.T. Wright. At Biola, our mutual Philosophy of Religion (visiting professor from Oxford) Richard Swinburne started the first lecture by saying "we must follow the evidence wherever it leads." That's a motto that stuck with Alex, for evidence is what points us to the truth, and it's the only thing that gets us there or on the right track. What else would we follow if not evidence ? Dr. Plato found himself dissatisfied with protestant churches , though, during this time. The building, the music, the sermons, everything but the coffee and doughnuts, seemed to get in the way of worshipping and knowing the Lord God of the Bible in the way Alex felt was most appropriate. Short story long, Alex took a year off to teach and be a security guard. During this period of relaxation, he gained clarity. He wanted a Ph.D. in Philosophy under a guy named John Greco, epistemologist at St. Louis University which is in St. Louis. Turned out, when he got there to that Jesuit school, he returned to Elizabeth Anscombe, found himself living with a Catholic family, attending mass in Latin, singing Gregorian chant, and adoring the beautiful architecture entirely missing from most Protestant churches. He took in the tradition, found himself in it, earlier and yet later than the Reformation, in a way that took him by pleasantly by surprise. Dr. Plato, Ph.D. then was hired at the Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio, to teach courses in the core (Philosophy of Human Nature, Ethics, and Metaphysics) as well as Philosophy of Community, among other things. He got tenure due to teaching excellence. There, his role is to be available to students and to facilitate conversations with them and among them about things they should be discussing in order to avoid the cliches so common in our public discourse. Strap in. There are tangents. But we always come back and summarize so you don't get lost (if you hang in there). There are also nuggets and gems of gold in the tangents. This is not scripted. It's a real conversation.

Work in itself is an act of praise to God, but the restorative power of work ripples beyond the simple task and into the lives of those that the task affects. Dr. Rae pulls from his extensive studies and book, "Business for the Common Good: A Christian Vision for the Marketplace", to help provide relevant examples of what utilizing your business as a ministry can look like.

Today's interview is (part one of two) with R. Scott Smith, Associate Professor of Ethics and Christian Apologetics at Biola University. He talks about his background and influences in ethics (J.P. Moreland, Dallas Willard), his opinion on the moral argument, the idea of naturalism grounding morality, the benefits of understanding ethical theory, and his recommended books on morality: Moral Choices by Scott Rae and Relativism by Koukl and Beckwith. Scott's own published works include Virtue Ethics and Moral Knowledge: Philosophy of Language after MacIntyre and Hauerwas and Truth and the New Kind of Christian: The Emerging Effects of Postmodernism in the Church. Scott also mentions the article "Knowledge & Naturalism" by Dallas Willard as well as J.P. Moreland's book Scaling the Secular City. Enjoy.
