A Plain Answer: An Antidote to Violence and Meaninglessness - Dr. John Vance
Update: 2025-10-25
Description
Have you noticed the increased violence in society lately? This is accompanied by a crudeness, and incivility. Aggression is seen in many of our city streets. Today we have another fireside chat with our friend and board member, Pastor John Vance. As a pastor for many years, he brings much experience and observation to the discussion.
He cites part of this passage as we begin our discussion:
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things." Romans 1:20-23. He observes that when people turn from God, they then believe anything. He also notes a kind of atheism among our elites. We end our discussion on a hopeful note, pointing to the Lord Who gives us meaning to our life. Participants: Dr. John Vance, Dan Elmendorf
