"David French: My Journey as a Christian to the New York Times" In today’s episode, Josh and Betsy are joined via phone by David French – a well-known writer and political commentator. David is an attorney, a former senior editor of The Dispatch, a professor at Lipscomb University, and a frequent columnist for The New York Times. David discusses his work at The New York Times, and what it is like to be a part of such a prestigious – and sometimes liberal – organization. He reflects on his influence as a man of faith, a follower of Christ, and shares his journey from a small Christian college to the NY Times. And – as another avid fan of J.R.R. Tolkien, he joins Josh and Betsy in ‘geeking out’ over the Amazon Prime series, “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power”! David French's article/report on Masculinity in America Admiral McRaven speech - "If you want to change the world... make your bed."

"Every Human Has A Story" Stories. We read them, we watch them, we live them. Every person has a story, and every person has to make sense of life in terms of a story. That is to say, everyone believes some story about how we got here, what is our purpose, and what happens when we die. We are en-storied beings.

This distinction, first brought to the public’s awareness by NY Times columnist David Brooks, is worth contemplating for all of us. What are we living for? What virtues are we cultivating?

"You Are Not Your Own... and Why That's a Good Thing" Oftentimes we hear about the benefits of home ownership, but what we don't think about is that our culture is constantly talking to us about self-ownership. We are all constantly hearing the message that we belong to ourselves, and no one else, and that what we do with our lives is totally up to us. Josh and Betsy discuss this cultural belief through a biblical lens, leaning heavily on Alan Noble's excellent book, You Are Not Your Own. Learn how to give up an ownership mindset and instead embrace a stewardship mindset. Show Notes: You Are Not Your Own by Alan Noble (book) Suggestions for future episodes?
