Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 49 - Purposeful Work
Work is a central part of a faithful Christian life as one embraces and fulfills their dominion calling to labor six days regardless of the type of work they do. The Kingdom of God is the greater purpose work serves, and this purpose also extends to children.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 48 - The Tower of Babel
Rushdoony wrote, “The goal of Babel was a radical unity against God and a unified social order… total community without God,” and fallen man continues his quest for modern Babels as “a substitute for Eden.” The results are always dystopian.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 47 - Rushdoony on Prayer

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 42 - Man’s Pursuit of Canaan
Man wants to build his “Canaan” but only creates continual hells. America itself worsens in its social and economic issues partly due to a retreat by evangelical churches who watch the decline from the sidelines and even participate in it. The same old wounds of class and racial hatred remain, and crime is on the rise. Is this not the time to return to God and His law?

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 41 - Social Financing
Rushdoony wrote that social financing is a necessity, and it will be done either by the faithful tithing of God’s people or by the coercive taxation by the state. If Christians are to establish alternative means of government, education, and charity, then they’ll have to do it through the tithe. For this reason, the tithe plays a central role in the great mission of Christian Reconstruction.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 39 - Subversion of Words
Subversive activity seeks to undermine society, and a significant factor in these schemes is the subversion of words where meaning is hijacked to make way for revolution and marginalize opponents. This is especially damaging when the subversion is happening within Christianity itself.
