Biblical Justice, Social Justice, and Forensic Science with Jennifer Hall Rivera
Today I’m talking about the difference between biblical justice and social justice. Justice and judgment are used interchangeably in the Old Testament. They are a part of God’s holiness but are delivered with grace and mercy. I’m joined by Jennifer Rivera from Answers in Genesis and we’re going to talk about forensic science and how that fits in a biblical worldview.
Stick around for Happy Hour where I’m talking about progressive Christianity and why it is so important that we know the word of God and that we can defend it.

Stick around for Happy Hour where I’m discussing more about the transgender movement in schools and in our culture in general and what we can do practically to move the needle.
