　　John 3:18 In-Context

　　16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

　　17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

　　18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.

　　19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.

　　20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.

Samuel Gregg: The Anglosphere As Actor On The World Stage
Samuel Gregg, Acton’s Director of Research, asks whether or not the Anglosphere nations (Britain, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the United States) continue to be a viable political force in the world today at the Library of Law and Liberty. Gregg begins with his unique Anglosphere experience: Given that I am of Scottish and English descent, grew up in Australia, did my doctorate in Britain, and now live and work in America, I am about as much a product of...
A Parable for the Entrepreneur
In this week’s Acton Commentary, “A Parable for the Unemployed,” I provide a brief survey of the biblical view of work, concluding with reference to the parable of the workers in the vineyard in Matthew 20. As I argue, this parable “might just as well be called the parable of the jobless. It teaches us to wait patiently and expectantly for ways that we can be of service to God through serving others.” Or as the Theology of Work mentary...
How Puritans Became Capitalists
In his book,Heavenly Merchandize, Mark Valeri, professor of church history at Union Presbyterian Seminary, finds that the American economy as we know it emerged from aseries of important shifts in the views of Puritan ministers: IDEAS:You’re saying that the market didn’t rise at the expense of religion, but was enabled by it? VALERI:You need to have a change in your basic understanding of how or where God works in the world before you can envision different economic behaviors as morally...
Mini-Grants on Free Market Economics
Are you a professor interested in free market principles? Do you know of one? The Acton Institute is offering mini-grants between $1,000-$10,000 for faculty at colleges, universities, and seminaries in the United States and Canada. The purpose of these mini-grants is to enhance the effectiveness in the teaching and scholarship of market economics. In the past, these mini-grants were only available for business and economics faculty at Christian schools, but this year any faculty (in the U.S. and Canada) working...
Federal Court Rules Religious Organizations Can Hire (and Fire) for Religious Reasons
Earlier today a federal appeals court handed down an important ruling that protects the liberties of religious organizations. In the case of Alyce Conlon v. InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit rejected a plaintiff’s attempt to enforce state and federal gender discrimination laws on one of the nation’s largest Christian campus ministries. According to the court opinion, Alyce Conlon worked at InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA (IVCF) in Michigan as a spiritual director, involved in...
You Can’t Separate Stewardship from Economics
As Christians continue toturn their attentionto the intersection of faith and work, it can be easy to dwell on such matters onlyinsofar as theyapplyto ourindividual lives. What is our purpose, ourvocation, and our value? How does God view our work, and how ought we to render it back tohim? What is the source ofour economic action? These questions are important, butthe answers will inevitably point us to a more public (and for some, controversial) context filled with profound questions of...
Affordable Energy Drives Basic Needs in the Developing World
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,” wrote Maimonides. “Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” With all due respect to Maimonides, much has happened since the 12th century. Among those changes is inexpensive, plentiful energy which powers refrigeration, which frees a man from the burden of fishing every day and allows him to engage in other worthy pursuits. That is only if the progressive crusade to strand fossil fuels...

In an era when Americans are finding less and less satisfaction with their nation while enjoying great pared to much of the rest of the world and overall human history, what can we do to regain our confidence in the American enterprise system that has lifted much of...
Why Keep Funding Ineffective Government Programs?
Head Start doesn’t work. More people than ever are now on food stamps. Medicaid is staggering under the weight of its own bloat. Why are we continuing to fund bad programs? This is what Stephen M. Krason is asking. Such programs keep expanding: There has been a sharp increase in the food-stamp and Children’s Health Insurance programs. Obama has proposed more federal funding for Head Start and pre-school education generally, job training for laid-off workers, and Medicaid. In fact, the...
Explainer: President Obama’s FY2016 Budget
What is the President’s budget? Technically, it’s only a budgetrequest—a proposal telling Congress how much money the President believes should be spent on the various Cabinet-level federal functions, like agriculture, defense, education, etc. (A PDF of the 150 page document can be found here.) Why does the President submit a budget to Congress? The Congressional Budget Act of 1974 requires that the President of the United States submit to Congress, on or before the first Monday in February of each...
