This week, Scott is joined by Talbot professor Thaddeus Williams to discuss: 

Why Don’t We Feel We're Thriving? — Despite living in the most prosperous era of human history, many Americans feel anxious and discontent. 

The End of Rainbow Capitalism? — Major corporations are backing away from Pride Month sponsorships. The discussion unpacks “rainbow capitalism,” shifting public opinion, and the limits of associating brands with social causes.

A Democratic Socialist Wins NYC Mayoral Primary — Scott and Thaddeus examine the growing support for socialism among Gen Z and millennials, and how it may intersect with our biblical mandate to love others.

10 Years After Obergefell — Reflections on the legalization of same-sex marriage and how the rise of transgender ideology, especially with minors, has led to cultural backlash and renewed concern about protecting children.

Listener Questions:

• Work as an Idol? — How to balance ambition and calling without making work your identity.
• Pronouns and Christian Integrity — Can using “they/them” be a faithful alternative in gender conversations?
• Cohabitating Before the Wedding Party — Is it OK for a couple to cohabitate after a courthouse wedding, but before celebrating with their family?
