The Biggest Thing Most People Don’t Understand About God

Larry dives into the profound concept of 'The Grace Effect,' a principle rooted in biblical theology and recognized by theologians as 'Common Grace.' 


Larry revisits his 2011 interview with John Stossel on Fox News, using it as a launchpad to explore how fundamental Christian beliefs about human nature and morality influence Western culture. 


He contrasts the biblical perspective of human depravity and the need for grace with the secular and atheistic views of human nature put forth by historical figures like George Bernard Shaw. 


Through historical references, discussions on modern atheism, and an examination of the internal and external arguments for God's existence, Larry emphasizes how the infusion of Christian ethics and grace shapes societies positively. 


He addresses the societal ramifications of declining Christian influence, rising secularism, and the cultural impact of Islam in the West. With insights from the work of thinkers like Augustine, T.S. Eliot, and Max Weber, this episode unpacks the transformative power of grace in individual lives and broader society.
