The world is witnessing a revolt against elitism, with growing resistance to big government, media, banks, and institutions. But what comes after these “bogeymen” are toppled? Is opposing corruption, bias, and cronyism enough, or is there a deeper issue at play?

In this episode, leading financial advisor and author David Bahnsen discusses the crisis of responsibility in a culture increasingly defined by blame and victimhood. He argues that true prosperity requires a return to personal accountability and virtue, with a focus on creating institutions that foster responsibility, rather than relying on external solutions.

Drawing on creational insights, Bahnsen explores the concept of imago Dei and its implications for human dignity and societal well-being. He critiques victim mentality, cultural Marxism, and calls for principled leadership over and above anti-elitism. This episode is a call to action for cultivating a society led by responsible, empowered individuals.

Can you have faith without the existence of evidence? In this episode, we explore the essence of this often confused word that lies at the heart of the gospel. We discuss the flawed idea that faith is blind and disconnected from reality and facts. Conversely, we argue that faith is to “assent to the weight of evidence.” Faith is to trust in the truthfulness and reliability of something or someone, based on a careful search of available evidence and personal experience.

Join us for another stop on our journey through 10 Words to Heal Our Broken World, a book aimed at restoring the foundational meanings of our culture's most important words. Today, our exploration reveals how differing belief systems and worldviews shape societal trust. We invite you to consider how understanding faith can transform individual choices and the broader social landscapes of our nations.
