We talk Jubilee and the importance of making Jubilee not just something we read about in the scriptures but something we ought to fight to realize historically and materially today.

In this episode we're discussing the way in which the Church relates to and participates in what we may refer to as "the work of God." We talk about things like Christian exceptionalism, the tendency for Christians to try and reproduce ourselves at the expense of doing meaningful work in our communities, the importance of studying and applying a political ideology, and the relation between the Church and the Maoist Party.Support the show: patreon.com/faithandcapitalOr leave a one time contribution at with PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/faithandcapitalLeave an iTunes rating and review.Faith and Capital is on instagram, twitter, and facebook.Contact: faithandcapital@gmail.comMusic by Amaryah ArmstrongSupport the show
