Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor
It's finally here! Gary's newest book, the one he's been working for years, is now ready and in stock. Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor is much more than a provocative title, it is a practical apologetic work that pushes the antithesis of those who claim there is no God, using their own words. This book will help many to wrap their minds around the moral and ethical problems (to name but two) with consistent atheism and pure materialism.

The Household and the State
Listen in as Gary is interviewed on the Plow and Potato show. The topic is the relationship between individual households and the State. Who's in charge, and what's their jurisdiction? These questions and many more are discussed in this short but insightful exchange.

Rightly Dividing the Word of God?
Gary responds to a video where a pastor claims you must "rightly divide the Bible," based on 2 Timothy 2:15. By this he means that you must rightly divide the "people" of God into Jew and Gentile and understand New Testament passages in light of "the Church age." The Bible never speaks of a "Church age" but this does not prevent many from claiming that it must be there all the same. They claim it is inferred and is the "key" to correctly interpreting Jesus' prophetic words in the Olivet Discourse. Watch the video here.

False Christs and False Messiahs
Gary answers a listener question about the audience change between Matthew 23 and 24. Audience relevance is a major aspect of the Olivet Discourse and the events leading up to Jesus' prophecies about the destruction of the temple. Is Matthew 23 and Matthew 24 and following addressed to a different people and speaking of different events and times?

The Media's Political Echo Chamber
Gary discusses an article about the upcoming presidential election and the fatigue about the entire process being experienced by the majority of voters. Most people are more concerned with the pressing affairs of their daily life than with the current state of Washington corruption. Tired of being constantly pummeled by political noise, many are checked out, but this doesn't prevent media outlets from creating stories out of thin air (or Twitter).

Expressive Individualism: Me, Myself, and I
Gary interacts with Carl Trueman's newest books about "expressive individualism" and the modern "truth" of the interior self. This is one of the primary philosophies driving political and social policy and it is nothing more than sin masquerading as reality. However, the fact that will not be tolerated is that there is one revealed objective Truth.

Biblical Illiteracy and the End of the World
Gary responds to several recent articles about the state of the world and the end times. Christians bemoan the sin and depravity they see around them, but then claim that these things are a confirmation that the "end is near." While the world is certainly in need of repair, things getting "worse and worse" is not proof that the last days spoken of the Bible are in our "near" future and "soon" to take place.

The Bible is the Standard
Gary responds to a video where a woman is raging against Christians and the Bible. She claims that she "doesn't care what a mythical god says in his mythical book." She appeals to the Constitution as giving her "rights," proving that she misunderstands both the Constitution and where rights and morality come from in the first place.

Don't Tread on Us
Gary discusses a recent dust-up at a school in Colorado regarding the Gadsden Flag. Administrators at the school told a student that he needed to remove a Gadsden patch from his backpack because it was a racist symbol. Gary sets the record straight. Note: Listen all the way to the end to hear an update from Gary about this controversy at the school.

MYTH: You Cannot Legislate Morality
You've heard it said over and over again that morality can't be legislated, but this is impossible. Every law is an imposition of someone's morality. In this encore episode from a couple of years back, Gary discusses this topic in much more depth, showing the impossibility of a "neutral" law system.
