I got an unexpected magazine subscription at work. After taking care of business, I noticed an article entitled “How ‘Business for Good’ Went Bad.” As I suspected, the article discussed the rise and decline of “stakeholder capitalism” more popularly called “woke capitalism.” Economic historians agree that what caused all the big corporations to “go woke” was a blueprint from the World Economic Forum after the housing market crash in 2008 and the Occupy Wall Street protests in 2011. While I discuss the article, I explain the real reasons for the 2008 crash in the first place. A misunderstanding of how markets work led to what we see today: large companies sponsoring “Pride parades” and narcissistic social media influences, as if

This episode is part 18 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. This episode covers chapters 15-18 of the book of Mosiah. This is part of the record that Ammon read. This record continues Abinadi’s sermon to King Noah and his priests. When Abinadi finishes, the king sentences him to die. One of the priests was a young man named Alma who pleads for the king to spare Abinadi. This stunt resulted in Alma being cast out of the court and ultimately a fugitive for his life. King Noah binds Abinadi in prison for three days, then executes him by burning him. The excommunicated priest Alma writes Abinadi’s sermon and uses it to disciple about

It’s that time of the year again! Not Christmas, but the next best thing. My wife Chelsea and I were at the annual Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference. During this two-and-a-half-day conference full of exhibits and workshop presentations, I wandered around the booths and recorded some interviews.

This episode is part 17 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. This episode covers Mosiah 15:1-9 and its clear teaching of modalism. These verses sound like something a Oneness Pentecostal might say. This episode explains the Trinity and how Oneness Pentecostalism differs with clips from Dr. David K. Bernard of the UPCI. Then, we compare what Oneness theology says with what Mosiah 15:1-9 claims about Jesus. Also, the Joseph Smith Translation changes Luke 10:22 to make Jesus say that the Father and the Son are the same person. (Note: I mistakenly said Matthew 11:27 in the audio, which is the parallel gospel account.) It seems undeniable that Joseph Smith was dabbling in modalism while

This episode is part 16 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. This episode covers chapters 9-14 of the book of Mosiah. This is part of the record of King Limhi’s grandfather Zeniff that Ammon read. It explains that Zeniff reclaimed the land of Nephi but only by the Lamanites giving him a part of the land. While Zeniff was king, the Nephites and the Lamanites battled several times. The Nephites won, but with bitter casualties. Zeniff helped the land of Nephi prosper before passing the crown to his son Noah. Unlike his namesake, King Noah of the Nephites was kind of like King Belshazzar. He taxed the people and he and his chosen priests
