What Every Christian Needs to Know About Economics and Transgenderism with Dr. Jay Richards
Friday, December 27, 2024
Charles Spurgeon once said that discernment is knowing the difference between right and "almost right". But when there's so much noise and confusion happening in the news and on social media these days, how can we tell the difference?As we approach the end of 2024, our friend Dr. Jay Richards returns to unpack some of the essentials of economics, the Christian worldview, and social trends so that you can be informed when it comes to the issues that matter the most. Join Frank and Jay as they discuss the importance of understanding the basics of economics and how it can help Christians think clearly about government policies, healthcare, and how it can equip believers to protect the most vulnerable populations in our society. Tune in as Frank and Jay answer questions like:Does the Bible advocate for a specific economic system?How did the government become so bloated, and why did it get involved in housing and education?What’s the difference between socialism and free-market capitalism?What's the best way to help those in poverty and how do people end up trapped in the welfare system?What did economist and philosopher Adam Smith mean by "the invisible hand"?During the second half of the program, they'll shift gears to examine the economic and cultural factors that are specifically driving the transgender movement. From the profit motives behind gender-affirming care to the resurgence of ancient Gnostic ideas, this thought-provoking conversation will shed light on how transgenderism became politicized, what's causing the major spike in gender dysphoria, and how to end child transitioning for good!Don’t miss this thought-provoking, year-end episode, and please consider making a tax-deductible donation to CrossExamined so that we can continue to help Christians defend the faith and do our part to make Christ known across the globe! 100% of your donation goes to ministry, 0% to buildings!Resources mentioned during the episode:Book - 'Money, Greed, and God' by Dr. Jay Richards: https://a.co/d/46pGwlSJay's work at The Heritage Foundation: https://www.heritage.org/staff/jay-w-richards-phdSociety for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine: https://segm.org/Biological Integrity: https://biologicalintegrity.org/Previous podcast - 'Money, Greed, and God' with Dr. Jay Richards: https://bit.ly/3DvSZn7
