Episode Synopsis


In this episode, we examine R.J. Rushdoony’s “Politics and Theology,” a sweeping critique of modern political ideals grounded in humanism rather than divine truth. From the shattered dreams of poets like Ezra Pound to the utopian fantasies of Walt Whitman and statist educators, Rushdoony argues that efforts to build a paradise without God only yield destruction and despair. When man makes himself the center, denies sin, and rejects God’s law, the result is not freedom or peace, but anarchy and perpetual revolution. Join us as we explore why lasting justice, true liberty, and a restored society are only possible when politics is rooted once again in Biblical theology and the sovereign Lordship of Christ.
