Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 55 - Christianity & Cultural Decline
The Chalcedon Podcast
Modern culture is unraveling—law divorced from morality, education detached from truth, and entertainment replacing virtue with vice. As society embraces death and decadence, Christians are called to resist the collapse by rebuilding from the ground up: strong families, faithful churches, and education rooted in God’s Word and moral accountability.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 53 - Theology of the Land
The Chalcedon Podcast
The Word of God has much to say about land and property and their connection to liberty. The Bible has so much to say about land that Rushdoony included an entire section about the theology of the land in his two-volume Systematic Theology.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 52 - Revolt Against Maturity
The Chalcedon Podcast
Psychology is the domain of theology because God’s Word speaks directly to man’s condition as a sinner in rebellion to God’s will. In this sense, man is revolting against the maturity God calls him to, and that rebellion is the root of his psychological dilemma.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 51 - Eschatology & Restoring God’s Order
The Chalcedon Podcast
Contemporary views of eschatology have little to do with Christian ethics and responsibilities, but Biblical eschatology focuses on “end points” in history that deal with the end of what opposes God and is followed by the restoration of godly order.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 50 - Great and False Expectations
The Chalcedon Podcast
Man’s end-of-the-world mentality refuses to believe history will continue beyond their time, and Christians are often guilty of insisting the end is near, resulting in a paralyzing of their duties. Christianity becomes unessential because societal concerns are irrelevant. Our expectations of the end are false, leaving us with a superficial faith.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 49 - Purposeful Work

Work is a central part of a faithful Christian life as one embraces and fulfills their dominion calling to labor six days regardless of the type of work they do.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 48 - The Tower of Babel
The Chalcedon Podcast
Rushdoony wrote, “The goal of Babel was a radical unity against God and a unified social order… total community without God,” and fallen man continues his quest for modern Babels as “a substitute for Eden.” The results are always dystopian.

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 47 - Rushdoony on Prayer
The Chalcedon Podcast

Chalcedon Podcast Ep. 46 - Seizing Opportunities
The Chalcedon Podcast
Rushdoony predicted much of what we’re contending with today but also proposed a solution in Christian Reconstruction. Our times offer great opportunities for those willing to apply their faith to every area of life.

info_outlineFor well over 500 years now, Western civilization has been in a state of civil war, with two aspects thereof in a growing conflict with one another. These two contending forces are humanism and Christianity. Humanism began its rise to power in the medieval era, and its strength was such that it captured the church, much of the academic world, and the state as well.
At the same time, however, the growing bankruptcy and imminent collapse of humanism has been increasingly in evidence. By replacing God with man as the new ultimate and absolute, humanism has introduced moral anarchy into the world. If every man is his own god and law, then no order is rationally possible. Humanism, having deified rationality, must now use the irrational and coercive power of the socialist state to hold society together.
This is the subject of Episode 28 of the Chalcedon Podcast.
