The iconic theologian puts the pandemic into perspective from what Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans.

But what about some of the questions that split the churches right down the middle? Questions like: Should we employ coercion in our attempt to care for the poor and educate people? Can we implement the Sermon on the Mount in the world of politics? Listen to the full podcast to hear the answers and more. Buy N.T. Wright's latest book 'God and the Pandemic' on Amazon.

TK Coleman: Race Relations, Justice, and the Market - A Neighbor's Choice Jun 24, 2020

Show notes

TK Coleman, Director of Entrepreneurial Education at FEE and Co-Founder of Praxis, joins the show to discuss how he reconciles free-market economics with his faith. "Freedom has always seemed scary," Coleman says, "Whenever you talk about freedom you always strike a nerve on our desire to control other people." Is there a threat of governments like that of China's exploiting free markets, and if there is what can be done about it? Is it okay for government to commit the same sins which aren't permitted for the individual? On black people disproportionately facing injustice, Coleman says: "The drug war does more to damage African-Americans than drugs themselves." With that in mind, what are we doing to heal race relations? Listen to the full episode for all this and more.
