1h ago1:11:29

1:11:29

In a democracy, partisan politics create an incentive toward extremism, and the first side to blink loses. The Prudentialist joins me as we explore the work of philosopher Nick Land and discover what game theory has to teach us about the dynamics inside the American political system.

No Common Tradition, No Common Sense | 8/22/24 10:21

1h ago10:21

10:21

The cry heard most often from conservatives demands a return to common sense, but what many fail to understand is that common sense requires a common tradition. Without a shared moral framework through which to understand our world, self-evident truths quickly dissolve into a quagmire of relativism and propaganda. Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts…

Niccolò Machiavelli has become infamous for his realistic and brutal approach to political philosophy. Many credit the Italian writer with giving birth to modern political thought, but did he create a permanent break by abandoning previous moral traditions?

1:12:43

The government of the United Kingdom continues its march toward tyranny as officials declare sexism a terrorist threat and release criminals in order to make room for political prisoners in the nation's jails.

God's Rules or Man's Whims? The Battle for True Worship 24:45

5h ago24:45

24:45

How does God desire to be worshipped? The right answer doesn’t come from the latest whiz-bang idea from today’s creative coolness technicians, but from God’s Word itself. Sadly, many in the church believe that anything that’s not forbidden in Scripture is fair game to use in the worship of God—from entertaining skits to musical light shows. But suc…

The Magical Media Makeover of Kamala Harris | 8/15/24 10:17

2h ago10:17

10:17

Kamala Harris is an embarrassing human being. After running an abysmal presidential campaign where she failed to win a single primary, the California senator was placed on the Biden ticket to fulfill the demographic requirements set forth by progressive ideology. The media has now relaunched Harris as a charismatic social media icon, and the bizarr…

Ep 292 | We Need More Choices in Elections | Guest: Christina Tobin 43:53

10d ago43:53

43:53

Every election cycle, it seems like our choices get not only worse but more limited. The two-party system consistently delivers poor candidates who resemble each other more than they differ. The reason for this is that there’s no competition. Matt Kibbe sits down with Christina Tobin, founder of Free & Equal, to discuss how we can change that. As t…

23:18

The Proverbs declare that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and knowledge (Prov. 9:10; 1:7). Yet, for more than 50 years, America’s public schools have abandoned this truth, resulting in the death of Christian faith among the majority of our youth. But the problem doesn’t stop there. Even some creators of Christian curriculum have too…

Liberty Without Virtue Leads to Ruin | 8/8/24 11:21

5d ago11:21

11:21

Americans have been taught to repeat endless slogans about rights and freedoms but very little about the necessity of virtue, and this has created a nation hungry for the fruit of a tree that was left to wither long ago. Any nation can create a republic, but to keep it requires a dedication not just to self-governance but to the governance of self.…

8d ago1:03:06

1:03:06

When it began, the war between Russia and Ukraine dominated the headlines. American politicians and the media told the public that if Vladimir Putin was not stopped, he would conquer all of Europe.

27:21

What’s a young man to do with his time and talents? Being self-focused is not the answer, for wise men build margin in their life so that can serve others in need.

The Problem of Dispensational Eschatology | Guest: Joel Webbon | 7/31/24 1:07:18

23d ago1:07:18

1:07:18

Many American Christians assume dispensationalism as their default theology, even though most of them would not recognize the name. While very popular, dispensationalism is also a relatively recent phenomenon with serious geopolitical implications due to claims that are applied to the current secular nation-state of Israel.

At this year’s FreedomFest in Las Vegas, Matt Kibbe sits down with English comedian Andrew Doyle to talk about how comedy, and indeed art as a whole, has been impacted by woke identity politics and critical theory.

24:50

What is “Christian Nationalism,” and should believers support it or not?

Palace Coup in a Late-Stage Empire | 7/25/24 11:22

11:22

On Sunday afternoon, the regime that propped up Joe Biden for four years unceremoniously discarded him with a simple social media post, placing him on the curb like a bag of garbage. In previous third-world coups, it was necessary to capture government buildings, the airport, or the radio and television stations. Today, control of the world’s only …

Cultural trends are insufficient, but God’s Word’s is sufficient to build His church. No other foundation will do. Yet for the last century, “do-what-works” pragmatism has been a driving force in how many churches have pursued evangelism, worship, and church life. Rather than believing God’s Word is enough, results-oriented ministry has dominated, …

In light of recent events, it is incumbent on all champions of freedom to denounce violence in all its forms. Reasonable people can agree that the Capitol riots on January 6, 2021, were a tragedy that should never have happened.

To flourish, a church not only needs a strong elder team, but a strong deacon team as well.

In today’s world, we’ve been flooded by a sea of lies on what manhood and womanhood really is.
