David Gornoski

In this episode, David Gornoski pays tribute to ex-presidential candidate Herman Cain.

The answer lies in recognizing Jesus' transformation of history by defending the person from the mob. Also, joining Da...

Join David Gornoski as he deconstructs the phenomenon of victim-garbed power-grabbing movements backed by wealthy and authoritarian forces.

David goes on to explain how Jesus' statement reveals why the violent revoluti...

Is BLM concerned only with police brutality and racism as many naively claim? Bradley Thomas, founder of EraseTheState.com , joins David Gornoski to discuss Black Lives Matter's anti-family agenda that originates from Marxism.

Do we imitate the government to get fr...

Nuclear scientist Dr. Max Zamilov returns to the show to talk about the next Galileo and Renaissance moments in history. Why is it that we are not interested in innovation anymore?

Instead of having theories presented as dogma...

Mises Institute's Tho Bishop calls in to comment on the latest news reports from around the country....

"The modus operandi of our time: If you want more power you have to look more vulnerable." David Gornoski argues that this is due to the haunting of Christ's crucifixion in American society. Without looking to Jesus as a model for imitation, David says, we will devolve into fighting over and weaponizing all external identity markers. "Without goodness behind the universe, the only thing left to cl...

Dr. Paul Axton, theologian and host of the Forging Ploughshares podcast, sits down with David Gornoski to talk about his experience of living in Japan, the idea of shame in death, Lacanian psychoanalysis, and seeing Japanese culture through Christian eyes.

How do we understand the growing undifferentiation--the breaking apart of traditional hierarchies--in western society? How can the church regain the gospel aesthetic of standing for the hidden victims of our society? The church must tell the stories of victims, David says, and in doing so, woke culture would evaporate in an instant. But then how would Jesus' salvation of the world look like when w...

Historian Chris Calton calls in to talk about the history of policing in America. The primary contributor to issues like rioting and police brutality, Calton says, is urban policing. Crime is not the primary determiner in arrest and incarceration statistics, Calton shockingly states. If crimes haven't increased then why are arrests increasing? The reason, according to Calton, is top-down pressure...

Kerry argues that t...

Human beings are primarily storytelling creatures; and storytelling is crucial for us. Which story should our society bind itself around? Many, including Karl Marx, have tried to distort Jesus' concern for victims, and each has failed to tell the non-violent, redemptive story of Christ. "The McWoke crowd intends to justify themselves by donning the god-mask of victims to sacrifice their neighbors,...
