Today’s justice movements are often dominated by secular worldviews. But what if the Bible provides Christians with an even more compelling vision for a just and flourishing society. Joining us is Dr. Christina Crenshaw, who will integrate biblical analysis, examples from the present and historic church, and stories from her own life to provide a helpful model for doing justice work within a solidly orthodox and biblical worldview.
Join us this hour as we look at some of the stories making headlines before talking with Dr. Michael New about the recent threats toward the Hyde Amendment. What is it and why has it saved so many lives? Then, Wesley Smith will join us to talk bio-ethics, including a story out of Peru where bees have been given “rights”. This promises to be a honey of a story.
