Another false narrative used by White Nationalists is called “The Curse of Ham”. This false doctrine inserts a racial narrative into the story of Noah that isn’t there in order to justify segregation and slavery of people with dark skin. This twisted thinking has also been used to defend the prac...

Did you know that there are White Nationalists who believe themselves to be Biblical Christians? They twist Scripture to claim that segregation based on skin color is the will of God. They also believe that European ethnicity is the favored “race” in God’s eyes. In this episode of “Fighting for t...

One of the hottest buzzwords of our day is JUSTICE. If anyone should be able to engage helpfully on this subject, it’s Christians.

What does Scripture say about Race Relations and Justice? Too often we approach this subject from a polemical standpoint. But we must approach it from Scripture. God created diversity for His glory.

In this episode, we wade carefully into the waters of "social justice." We begin by outlining some of the difficulties that arise when talking about this issue, including the importance of defining our terms carefully.

In this episode, we continue to build the foundation for discussing social justice. We talk about the way the English language changes over time, how people intuit the meanings of important terms like “justice", and discuss the importance of looking for the Aristotelian mean during these types of...

In this episode, we discuss the way the Bible speaks of “justice.” We look at the two Hebrew words translated as “justice” in our English bibles, and use them to build a framework for understanding the use of the word in modern discussion about “social justice”.

The term “Social Justice” can be found in almost any discussion about society, politics, and religion, and many evangelicals have fully embraced the word. But what is the history of the term, and how might the ideological origins of “social justice” color its meaning? In this episode, we survey t...

Following our analysis of the history and evolution of the term “social justice”, Sean and Russell ask an important question: How should we use this term?

In this expanded episode of the Just Thinking podcast, Darrell Harrison and Virgil “Omaha” Walker spend more than three hours unpacking t...

Should we think of Jesus more as a model for living than as an object of worship? Did he die on the cross for our sins, or was he just some kind of martyr? Is life in this world more important than the afterlife? According to Michael J. Kruger, the liberal, progressive, or emergent answers to the...

On this program, the hosts continue their discussion begun last week on the influence of the Radical Reformation. How did the theology of the Anabaptist and Pietist movements end up influencing so many forms of Protestantism, both here in America and around the world? And more specifically, how d...
