In this episode, Becket Cook chats with Dr. Thaddeus Williams, professor at Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) and author of "Confronting Injustice Without Compromising Truth," to unpack his recent World Magazine article, "An Anti-Gospel Take on Greed."

They dive deep into the growing influence of socialism in Christian circles, the biblical response to economic justice, and why Marxist assumptions about wealth, greed, and justice fall short of the gospel. Dr. Williams shares personal stories, historical insights, and a theological framework for understanding economics through a biblical lens.
