GRACE. Jesus didn't bring us religion; humans had long been sacrificing to the gods. His Gospel is an undeserved gift that overflows the heart and splashes out in waves that bless others. ARCHY. A suffering servant is the true king. His "government" is made up of servants who voluntarily carry a cross, go the extra mile, and care for the weakest. Church and State don't govern that way, so you're "Done." HOST. Jim Babka's career evolved from political campaigns to policy activism to principle-based philosophy. He discovered that politics corrupts character, the world hates being fixed, and debates disconnect persons. Chopping at the root requires us to address blame, envy, and scapegoating. The world needs Grace. MODERATOR. Bill Protzmann

This is the TL;DR the 80,000 pages of the JFK files last night episode. What was in the files? "TL;DR means" Too Long; Didn't Read. 63,400 pages were released Tuesday night (3/18). We bet you haven't had time to read them all, yet! Includes ...tools and tips to avoid being conned by people online. ...some of the worst viral activity on Twitter. ...two pieces of new information revealed in the files. ...a list of what we want to see finally revealed. If you watch this one hour, you'll be mentally armed to look like a JFK files expert with your friends. **STAY TO THE END** (there's more after the stinger!)

We reflect on the five-year mark of "two weeks to flatten the curve." Jim and Bill, along with guest Doug Stuart from the Libertarian Christian Institute, explore the significant challenges church leaders faced during the worldwide sickness, including the struggle to maintain unity amid divisive reopening strategies and social distancing measures. The discussion is inspired by a brand new book, "A House Divided," and the group discusses both 'the Dones' - individuals who have stepped away from traditional church settings while maintaining their faith - and why some Christians seemed afraid of Death. HouseDividedBook.com https://housedividedbook.com/ pre-release March 15, 2025 Doug Stuart is the Content Director at Libertarian Christian Institute https://libertarianchristians.com/ Ekklesia - called out assembly or gathering of people. In ancient city-states, especially Athens, the popular assembly of citizens who would handle public matters and serve as a jury for trials. Correction: While Benjamin Giffone is a professor, and he lives in Grove City, PA., the guest mistakenly said that Mr. Giffone is a professor "at" Grove City College. Not so.

It was an otherwise fantastic interview on a great podcast. We highly recommend you watch the entire show! But Michael Shermer stumbled badly on the Kennedy assassination stuff. On this matter, Jim shows how he doesn't even practice trademarked Skepticism. Using clips from his interview with Reason's Nick Gillespie, Jim Babka demonstrates how uninformed and unfair Shermer is on this one issue - even answering Shermer's only real Skeptic question.

On Thursday, January 23, 2025, Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to begin the final de-classification and release process of the remaining JFK Assassination records. What is in this Executive Order? What problems might occur based on how it was written? Why is it important that the remaining records be released? Is there a smoking gun in there? Jim answers all of those questions, plus he gives a sneak peak at what kind of things could or should emerge from the release. Jim's way of addressing the Kennedy files included delicious details. It's likely that many of the things he covered will be new you.

EP118: Politics of Envy; Socialism is a Sin - Gracearchy with Jim Babka 47:49

9 weeksที่แล้ว47:49

47:49

Socialism is a theory of blame that excuses envy. Popular podcasting socialists (including Krystal Ball, Kyle Kulinski, and Sam Seder) recently gave writer Scott Galloway jubilant viral buzz. Galloway had appeared on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," and the podcasters presented the same 1-minute,20-second clip. Their commentary would be more accurately described as moral preaching. While Galloway was calling for much higher taxes on the wealthy, he was also ignoring historical facts and critical economic realities. But WHAT'S NEW HERE is that Prof. Galloway presented a sophisticated justification for the theft they all advocate. Jim Babka demonstrates how their arguments are both superstitious and a violation of Human Respect.

Elon's Wealth and H-1B's: Grace over Grievance - Instant Grace 31 with Jim Babka 12:23

12:23

We just finished an episode about the Vivek Ramaswamy's role in the H-1B debate (116). Here, we very quickly and quite efficiently explore the debate around Elon Musk’s wealth, H-1B visas, and immigration. Elon's critics at the podcast Due Dissidence argue that he could solve issues like homelessness with a simple check. But is that truly the solution? Jim Babka explains why such arguments miss the mark, revealing the flawed thinking behind "Housing First" policies and the broader misconceptions about wealth and resource allocation. We also discuss how immigration benefits everyone - not just through top-tier talent but through contributions at all levels. With grace-based insights, Jim dismantles partisan narratives and offers a perspective that values people as individuals, not just economic units.

116: H-1B Vivek Misses the Mark; His Critics Deny Reality - Gracearchy with Jim Babka 54:26

A Vivek Ramaswamy Tweet on H-1B visas sparked a heated debate about immigration and economics. In this episode of Gracearchy with Jim Babka, we take a unique, grace-based libertarian approach to the conversation. While Vivek raises valid points, his perspective focuses too much on immigrants as economic units. On the other hand, his critics reveal a troubling lack of humanity and understanding, with some even echoing Know-Nothing-era arguments. Jim dives deep into the debate, presenting a vision of immigration that sees people as unique individuals made in the image of their Creator, rather than cogs in an economic machine. He explains why H-1B visas, though flawed, might serve as a necessary temporary compromise and unpacks three ironic truths about the Know-Nothing critiques.
