Hour 1: The Socialist Temptation
Just thirty years ago, socialism seemed utterly discredited. An economic, moral, and political failure, socialism had rightly been thrown on the ash heap of history after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Unfortunately, bad ideas never truly go away—and socialism has come back with a vengeance.
A generation of young people who don’t remember the misery that socialism inflicted on Russia and Eastern Europe is embracing it all over again. Oblivious to the unexampled prosperity capitalism has showered upon them, they are demanding utopia. Join us to hear a powerful warning that the resurgence of socialism could rob us of our freedom and prosperity.
Hour 2: A Change of Affection
Can someone truly be transformed by the power of the gospel? Join us to hear our guest’s story of dramatic conversion to Christianity and subsequent seminary training inform his views on homosexuality--personally, biblically, theologically, and culturally. He will also help us discover how the Church can best respond to the questions of personal identity. Come and hear compassion insights on a very controversial topic.
