Ordo Amoris - Why JD Vance is Right on Immigration

In this episode we address the recently recovered phrase “Ordo Amoris” or ordered loves, how this traditional Christian view is underpinning the new Trump administration's immigration policy and why it’s a good thing. I hope you enjoy the episode. --- Chad's Heritage Turquoise Jewelry - chadbarela.com/shop The Common Trading Post - chadbarela.com/thecommon Saint Poncho Candles - chadbarela.com/st-poncho Chorus Freelance Design - choruspadilla.com --- Connect with us: Chad: Email: info@chadbarela.com Website: chadbarela.com Instagram - @chadbarela X - @chadbarela Chorus: Instagram - @choruspadilla Website - choruspadilla.com

Dual Responsibility - How to Have a Successful Dialogue

We're so excited to be back! In this new season, we're going to be taking a bit of a different approach. Instead of an hour-long weekly show hitting a wide range of topics, we've decided to narrow it down to one topic of cultural, political, or theological significance, distilled to a shorter, organic rant with creative elements sprinkled throughout. Doing it this way, we can focus on more quality and engaging content and build it from there. In this introductory episode of season 2, Chad Barela explores the responsibility both parties have in any dialogue. Too often, all of the weight of responsibility gets heaped on the transmitter of information and none ever seems to be claimed by the receiver, making cordial conversations at scale impossible. I hope you enjoy the episode. ---------------------------- Chad's Heritage Turquoise Jewelry - chadbarela.com/shop The Common Trading Post - chadbarela.com/thecommon Saint Poncho Candles - chadbarela.com/st-poncho
