Beschrijving

The Church and the State are two distinct governments that God has established under His sovereign rule and reign. While distinct from each other, they are not separate from God and ought to be accountable to one another. The church that fails to do its duty enables a tyrannical state. The church that does its duty enables justice to prevail in the public square. Jeff Durbin, pastor of Apologia Church and President of End Abortion Now, joins Kings & Statesmen to discuss the place of the church in propagating righteous laws and edicts.

aflevering Defeating Communism | C.R. Wiley artwork

Defeating Communism | C.R. Wiley

How to Defeat Communism in Your Spare Time In this episode of Kings & Statesmen, Lennox Kalifungwa and David Shepard are joined by CR Wiley for a bracing conversation on defeating communism—not through slogans or street protests, but through ownership, discipline, and responsibility. Wiley argues that ideological revolutions are sustained not by theory alone, but by the erosion of households, the abandonment of stewardship, and the refusal to bear the weight of adult responsibility. This discussion explores why strong families, productive labor, and property ownership remain the most effective counters to collectivist thinking. If communism thrives on dependency and resentment, the recovery of household strength may be its quiet undoing.
