The Biblical Anarchy Podcast

In this episode, I briefly go into my thoughts on the "He Gets Us" Superbowl commercial, & where it gets some things right but some things wrong. This episode's topic will be expanded upon in an upcoming episode with my friend Torren who is a Christian who used to be transgender and detransitioned, to talk about how the church should respond to the LGBT community and movement. The Biblical Ana...

In this episode, I sit down with fellow CFLN podcast host Gregory Baus, for a discussion on the conquest of Canaan as depicted in the OT Scripture. Often when talking about libertarian anarchist philosophy or the libertarian critiques of the State, the topic of war comes up. Libertarian anarchists generally take oppositional positions on war, often depicting themselves as being anti-war on the who...

In this episode, Liam McCollum returns to the show to dive deeper into the Russia/Ukraine conflict. We explore the many ways in which American foreign policy decisions over the past few decades have worked to continuously antagonize and provoke hostility from Russia, by repeatedly breaking promises and sabotaging peace efforts.

In this episode, we return to the Internet to find objections to anarchy and decentralization. The specific objections we tackle today are "How would an anarchist society protect people from criminals or from foreign invasion?" As well as "What would prevent corruption or the emergence of warring factions in an anarchist society?” Does the state have a monopoly on law and defense? Or, does anarchi...

In an ever increasingly secular society, Christians often feel convicted to take a stand and use whatever means they have at their disposal to push back against a culture rebelling against God, and biblical principles of right and wrong. This often includes a desire to use the civil legislature, or the state, to pass laws for basing certain sinful actions. In this episode, we try to break down wha...

This Christmas themed episode dives into the lyrics to the Christmas Hymn "O Come O Come Emmanuel" and the scriptures the song references to explore what themes and lessons we should glean from them and what Christians should pray for and be led to think and feel during the Christmas season.

What does it mean to render unto Caesar what is Caesar's? As Christians are we called to pay our taxes, and if so, is that because taxation is what God has established as the morally just mechanism for funding public services in society?

On this episode I had a conversation with Greg, the Secretary of the Libertarian Party Sober Caucus. Drew, the founder, started the LPSC in early 2021 to combat the state and how it actively works against recovery. Most of the leadership of the LPSC come from places of addiction themselves and are compassionate to the struggle. At the same time, however, they are against prohibition and believe a...

In this episode, we take to the Internet to take on what other Christian thinkers have said about the compatibility of Christianity and anarchy based on what the Bible says. Specifically, a common argument that anarchy is chaos and a void of law and order, and thus incompatible with what the Bible teaches about authority in government, is made in an article by gotquestions.org. Are they right? Or,...

Property Rights - why are they foundational to understanding how we are to love our neighbor? Why is the economy something Christians should care about, and what does the Bible say about property rights and the economy? In today's episode, the first in a series on Biblical Economics, we seek to answer the question of where value comes from, and what do we owe people/what is Biblically normative wh...

In this episode we, dive into the temptation of control that plagues mankind, a theme that is so embedded in our existence that it permeates our literature, movies, and culture. We dive into the Bible to see examples of this temptation and how it can be traced all the way back to the garden and the fall itself. Does the Bible teach us to control and dominate the world around us, or to relinquish c...

What does the Bible teach us about governance, authority and human relationships? What is Anarchy? Is it violent revolutionaries or radical pacifism? In this pilot episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, we dive into these topics and set the stage for what this podcast's focus and goal will be, and I make an opening argument for why following the Bible consistently leads us to reject the State an...
