Gracearchy with Jim Babka

What your Christian friends believe makes YOUR world. Chances are, you have NOT thought about this before. Consider... The United States is the most powerful nation on the planet. For most of you reading this, it's your home country. And Christians are an extremely large demographic group influencing culture and politics. Perhaps you never thought about that before. Maybe you think about it regula...

Were you unwittingly dragged into a conflict by people with agendas? Brittney Griner was released from a Russian prison. Meanwhile, Paul Whelan was overlooked. This story has nearly faded from the headlines, and the passion has dissipated – the way stories like this always do.

Cancel culture, doxing, not-so-veiled threats, incitement...this is assault plain and simple, which is a crime, by the way. How does society respond? So far, it hasn't been skillful.

The deportation of political refugees from Texas to Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was a political stunt that is also illegal under Federal law, to say nothing of the outright lies that were told to the Venezuelan immigrants involved.

Show Notes What is Jubilee? What is usury? Why is the student loan program an example of usury? Why does the idea of a student loan jubilee appeal to Jim? And if so, why does this bailout not meet the criteria? And should we have a "Critical Theory" of Higher Education? Solutions for student loan debt are also presented and weighed in this episode. We welcome your ideas in the comments. Gracearchy...

Should you get out of Bitcoin with its recent decline? Should you be scared to get on board? Jim Babka isn't providing investment advice (he doesn't believe he's qualified to do that). But he does make some long-term predictions. He gives answers to the following questions... - Why is Bitcoin down? Does it still have a purpose, even if its value drops to $10k or lower? - Is Bitcoin an inflation he...

LIVE program begins at 2:43 In this episode, Jim responds to today's Supreme Court ruling overturning Federal protection for abortion rights in the United States.

Stephen Barrows is the chief operating officer at the Acton Ins...

AHO Radio is proud to offer Gracearchy with Jim Babka, a show about the "middle way" forward. In this inaugural episode, Jim sounds off on guns in America, but in a way that splits the difference between the elimination of all privately-owned guns and the American status quo: loose regulation of them. Beyond the necessary thoughts and prayers everyone can offer, what is the skillful, practical way...
