Church: Cultural Marxism by Voddie Baucham
Video [1 Hour]
Founders’ Description
Voddie Baucham has spoken of the unbiblical ideology imbedded in Cultural Marxism. In this address, he unpacks Cultural Marxism identifying how it is incompatible with the Christian faith that has once for all been delivered to the saints.
In recent years we have a growing concern about “social justice.” What is meant by that phrase, however, varies widely among those who use and promote it. What is too often missing—even in the calls for “social justice” coming from Christian leaders—is a clear understanding of biblical justice. Justice exists because God is just and righteous. He is the One who defines justice and He has revealed what true justice is in the Bible. For more resources on these topics, you can visit www.founders.org.
This presentation was given by Voddie Baucham on January 3, 2019 at the Southeast Founders "Do Justice, Love Kindness, Walk Humbly" regional conference in Cape Coral, Florida.

Convictional Living In Society
In a unique moment in time and place, U.S. Congressman Trey Gowdy of South Carolina gave a convocational speech at Liberty University in March 2015 advocating for people's belief to mean something in life. Gowdy begins the message after an introduction that describes him as relational, loving, considerate, and humble. Gowdy is not speaking on behalf of the government, but he addresses real life issues from a biblical foundation combined with a government perspective on how American's dependency on the government for life issues has risen because of the steep decline of community and relationships in real life -- family, friendships, neighborhoods, towns, and cities.
Worldview Discussion on American and Global Politics
The Master's University in Santa Clarita, CA provided a night to share how they discuss and consider American politics at the TMU Summit, "2016 Presidential Election and Current Events Summit." Jack Cox leads the discussion with lines of helpful questions many have been currently considering, and there are four interviewed including Soeren Kern, Dr. John Stead, Dr. Gregg Frazer, and Dr. John MacArthur. They provide helpful insights, discernment, and the confirmation that political vote is a means (i.e. "tool") and "not an end in and of itself."
