  • Pro-Child Policies (with Katy Faust)
    Nov 19 2024

    Is it really true that no area of culture, politics or economics where we prioritize what is best for children? What are some of the biggest cultural lies about masculinity and femininity that impact children? What are some of the main cultural misconceptions about the family that harm children? And how does green energy subsidization negatively impact children? We’ll answer these questions and much more with our guest Katy Faust, founder of the children’s advocacy group, Them Before Us, around a new book she’s edited called, Pro-Child Politics: Why Every Cultural, Economic and National Issue is a Matter of Justice for Children.

    Katy Faust is Founder and President of Them Before Us, a global movement defending children’s right to their mother and father. She publishes, speaks and testifies widely on why marriage and family are matters of justice for children.

  • How to Think Biblically about Morality and Ethics (with Dave Horner)
    Nov 12 2024

    How should we think biblically about morality in today’s culture? What do we way to the skeptic who insists that morality is nothing more than a matter of one’s opinion? What is the moral argument for God’s existence? Why is God critical for a coherent view of morality? We’ll answer these questions and more with our guest, our colleague Dr Dave Horner around his new book with JP Moreland, (don’t let the title throw you) Metaethics—or how to think about morality and ethics.

    Dr. Dave Horner is Professor of Theology and Philosophy at Talbot. He has a D.Phil. from Oxford and is the author of several books, including Mind Your Faith: A Student's Guide for Thinking and Living Well, and numerous journal articles, book chapters, blog posts and conference presentations. He's a specialist in Aristotle and Aquinas in addition to ancient and medieval philosophy.
