Hard Men Podcast

Send us a text!The socio-political landscape in America is currently a bed of hot coals, rife with tension and discontent, as the recent viral song "Rich Men North of Richmond" from Oliver Anthony demonstrates.  There's a massive disconnect between elites and the working class. Globalism vs. Populism. Christianity Today vs. actual Christians in America today. Joining us for a captivating discussion of this situation is Nate Fischer of New Founding, bringing to light the widening disconnect between the elites and the middle class, and the growing irrelevance of the conservative movement. With Nate, we dive deep into power dynamics and network influences that drive these narratives, exploring the fragility of the current globalist, post-war consensus system.Be prepared for a candid examination of the escalating tension between the liberal order and the increasing use of hard power, such as police threats and arrests, to enforce compliance. We saw this with the recent Trump indictments. Shifting gears, we also explore the appeal of alternative ideologies, the skepticism towards institutionalized food and health systems, the rise of accounts like Raw Egg Nationalist and Bronze Age Pervert, and an alarming trend of labeling anything skeptical of the technocratic regime as 'fascist' or 'Nazi'. Our conversation with Nate culminates in a nuanced understanding of the evolving evangelical movement, its power dynamics, and the motivations behind denouncing rivals. What about the phrase, "No enemies to the right?" What does this mean? We scrutinize the Tim Keller-inspired transition from fundamentalism to anti-fundamentalism and its implications for wealth building. Lastly, we shed light on the vital distinction between enemies and sinners, and the urgent necessity of focusing our collective energy on the left, especially those who have openly declared war on us. A must-listen episode for anyone keen on making sense of this turbulent era!Talk to Joe Garrisi about managing your wealth.Sign up for Barbell Logic.Place your meat order with Salt & Strings.Start banking with Private Family Banking.

Send us a text!America is divided, but how deep does that division run? Do our small towns and cities see the world through fundamentally different lenses? Today's episode takes a deep dive into this national dichotomy, sparked by the recent release of Jason Aldean’s controversial song, Try that in a Small Town. I dissect the song and its depiction of the ongoing divide between rural areas and urban centers, particularly in the wake of 2020’s events. We also discuss the song’s resonance with the frustrated spirit of the populist movement, and how Aldean himself has often found himself in opposition to Nashville's controlling elites.We then shift gears, analyzing the growing sentiment in favor of a national divorce, echoed by personalities like Marjorie Taylor Greene. Exploring movements like the Greater Idaho Movement and phenomena like the New Big Sort, we discuss the mass exodus from liberal cities and states, and the irony of the political choices of those who relocate. We provide an in-depth examination of the stark contrast between these 'blue' and 'red' areas, highlighting the socio-political implications that have given rise to these sentiments.Lastly, we scrutinize the changing face of Evangelical Christianity, particularly its shift towards the Open Society of post-World-War-II consensus. We talk about figures like Russell Moore and the pivotal roles played by David French and Tim Keller in this shift. We examine Tim Keller's influential manifesto, The Decline and Renewal of the American Church, and its impact on today’s church. Wrapping up, we reflect on the widening schism between the populist fundamentalist movement and the evangelical establishment, and its implications for conventional views on masculinity, marriage, family, and community.

Send us a text!How should Christians think about leaving godless blue states? In this episode, I talk with pastor Joel Webbon about his new book, Fight by Flight: Why Leaving Godless Places is Loving Godless Places.  We'll also talk about the  upcoming Right Response Christendom 2.0 Conference, which is about seven doctrines: Reformed Confessionalism, Covenant Theology, Biblical Patriarchy, Presuppositionalism, Kyperianism, General Equity Theonomy, and Post-Millennialism. Sit tight as we unpack the controversies surrounding biblical patriarchy and contemplate its future trajectory. I will be joining Joel at the conference to speak about biblical patriarchy.  We further delve into the intriguing dynamics of biblical patriarchy, exploring the implications for the roles of husbands and wives. Joel and I rigorously evaluate the essence of distinctly feminine domestic applications in women's Bible studies. How should a husband utilize his authority as a husband to oversee his wife's spiritual formation? We broaden our discussion to encompass the concept of Complimentarianism, investigating its societal, familial, and church implications. Towards the end of our conversation, we navigate the turbulent waters of 'staying and fighting' versus 'fleeing and fighting' in progressive contexts. We scrutinize the current struggles of MacArthur-type churches, the compromises made by Keller-type churches, and how effectively others are pushing back against the wokeness of progressive contexts. Join us as we assess the impact of these decisions on state taxes, church funding, and the power dynamics of applied theology. Finally, we reflect on the importance of faithfully preaching revelation, interpretation, and application, and the implications of the decision to stay and fight or flee and fight in progressive contexts.
