    What You Need to Know About Natural Asset Companies

    What are Natural Asset Companies, and why did 24 states fight to stop them? In this episode of Created to Reign, David R. Legates explains how NACs would turn the ecological “value” of forests, watersheds, and other natural areas into tradable corporate assets—placing control of land use in the hands of investors rather than owners. Proponents claim NACs unlock new money for conservation. Critics warn they threaten property rights, restrict access to land, raise food and energy prices, and open the door to globalist overreach. Join us as we unpack why the New York Stock Exchange withdrew its proposal, why the idea isn’t dead, and what NACs could mean for the future of sovereignty and stewardship.

    Try This Life-Changing Christmas Experience

    In this special Christmas episode of Created to Reign, Cal Beisner steps away from the usual discussions of environmental stewardship and economic wisdom to explore a different kind of wonder. Drawing on Virgil’s Eclogue IV—a poem early Christians saw as foreshadowing the birth and kingdom of Christ—Cal traces how its imagery of peace, abundance, and restored creation resonates through history and culminates in one of the greatest musical works ever composed: Handel’s Messiah. From Virgil’s prophetic verses to the scriptural epigrams that inspired Handel’s masterpiece, this episode invites you to “sing of great things” by reflecting on the mystery of the Incarnation and the beauty of the gospel proclaimed through music. Cal walks through the structure of Messiah, highlights its most powerful movements, and shares how generations—from early church fathers to John Newton—have used this oratorio as a tool for worship and evangelism. Whether you’ve sung Messiah in a choir or never listened to it start-to-finish, this episode offers a heartfelt invitation: experience a performance of Messiah this Christmas, follow the text, and let its sweeping narrative of prophecy, redemption, and triumph draw you into deeper awe of Christ. Listen in—and may this season fill you with joy, gratitude, and hope in the One whose birth changed the world.

    Roman Catholics Speak Out On Climate Change... Again.

    Roman Catholic leaders are sounding the climate alarm again—but are their claims grounded in reality? In this episode of Created to Reign, Dr. E. Calvin Beisner takes a hard look at the latest warnings, from Laudato Sí to the Claretian Missionaries’ “Glad You Asked” podcast, and tests them against the actual data on natural disasters, global temperatures, and the world’s energy use. The episode breaks down why dire predictions of worsening hurricanes, droughts, floods, and fires don’t match long-term observational records, and why trillions spent on renewables have barely budged global dependence on fossil fuels. It also challenges the notion that rejecting climate catastrophism means rejecting care for creation, and revisits the Cornwall Alliance’s Open Letter to Pope Francis as a call for clearer thinking and better stewardship. A compelling, evidence-driven challenge to the dominant narrative—inviting listeners to rethink what faithful creation care really requires. “Glad You Asked” podcast: https://uscatholic.org/articles/202511/what-does-the-church-really-teach-about-climate-change-lorna-gold/ Open Letter to Pope Francis on Climate Change, https://cornwallalliance.org/anopenlettertopopefrancisonclimatechange/ Climate and Energy: The Case for Realism, https://cornwallalliance.org/product/climate-and-energy-a-case-for-realism/   Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/ Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.
