　　Joshua 22:5 In-Context

　　3 For a long time now-to this very day-you have not deserted your fellow Israelites but have carried out the mission the Lord your God gave you.

　　4 Now that the Lord your God has given them rest as he promised, return to your homes in the land that Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on the other side of the Jordan.

　　5 But be very careful to keep the commandment and the law that Moses the servant of the Lord gave you: to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to keep his commands, to hold fast to him and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul."

　　6 Then Joshua blessed them and sent them away, and they went to their homes.

　　7 (To the half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given land in Bashan, and to the other half of the tribe Joshua gave land on the west side of the Jordan along with their fellow Israelites.) When Joshua sent them home, he blessed them,

Bernie Sanders vs. Elon Musk and MLK on overpopulation
Time and reality have not been kind go Senator Bernie Sanders’ proposal to save the climate by aborting brown people. Admitted, Sanders did not use such stark, Jim Crow-era language, but ments this week unintentionally revealed peting ways dueling economic systems view human dignity. Sanders made mentsin response to a question from Martha Readyoff during CNN’s seven-hour climate change town hall on Wednesday evening. (Imagine the resources the network could have saved had it merely ceased broadcasting.) After Readyoff asserted...
Acton Line podcast: Why we need the Religious Freedom Restoration Act; The truth about recession rumors
On November 16, 1993, President Bill Clinton signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) into law, a bill backed by nearly unanimous bipartisan support. While RFRA has since then protected the religious liberty of American citizens, it has lost many of its original supporters and is now under attack. So why was RFRA signed into law in the first place? Does the bill truly protect religious pluralism? Daniel Mark, a professor of political science at Villanova University, helps answer these...
The most important economic chart in Western civilization
James Pethokoukis of AEI says this is the most important economic chart in Western civilization. pletely agree. The concept is so important that no student should receive a passing grade in any economics class—whether in high school or college—unless they can explain why economic growth matters (ideally, every educated Christian would be able to do so too since it has theological implications). Yet, sadly, few Americans recognize its importance despite the fact, as Pethokoukis notes, that in real terms, the...
A Christian’s calling during Brexit chaos
The UK has been on a wild ride this week, with the future of Brexit teetering on a razor’s edge. Prime Minister Boris Johnson expelled 21 members from the Conservative Party after they voted for a bill preventing the UK from leaving the EU without a deal, while Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party – which regularly demanded a general election against the hapless Theresa May – sank (or at least postponed) Johnson’s plan to call a general election. Rev. Richard Turnbull...
Remembering Diet Eman: ‘You would have done the same’
Diet Eman during WWII By the time I had the privilege of meeting Diet Eman, she was a woman who reminded me of my own grandmother: relatively short, with a crown of white hair, a sparkle in her eye, and a solid Dutch accent in her speech. She was friendly, humble, and happy – just a lovely person. But there was more to Diet Eman than met the eye; she was also a woman with an amazing story, who had...
Karl Marx: Intellectual father of the 1619 Project?
TheNew YorkTimes’1619 Projectseeks toestablishthe moment the first slave ship landed in Virginia as “a new point of origin for our national story,” because“nearly everything that has made America exceptional grew out of slavery.” The series – which attempts to link American prosperity, our economic system, even our lack of asingle-payer healthcare systemto slavery – can count at least one prominent thinker as a supporter: Karl Marx. The father munism anticipated theTimes’ view that the U.S. economy owes its might entirely...
A more robust vision of labor and solidarity
In this week’s Acton Commentary, “Your work is more than your job,” I try to provide a broader perspective on the dynamics of a proper “work-life balance.” My main point, as the title indicates, is that our paid work is just a part–an important part no doubt, but just a part–of our “work,” understood as the service that we are called to do for others. The point of departure for this piece is Labor Day, which was observed this week...
Unanswered questions from the Sohrab Ahmari-David French debate
Sohrab Ahmari and David French met in debate on Thursday night, at the Catholic University of America’s Institute for Human Ecology, in an eventtitled, “Cultural conservatives: Two visions responding to the post-liberal Left.” The discussion – which French gave the Muhammad Ali-style moniker the “Melee at CUA” – raised vital questions of how Christians should interact with the state but left pivotal questions unanswered. The participants Sohrab Ahmari – a Roman Catholic, former senior writer atCommentary, and currently op-ededitorof theNew...
Competition at the big screen: A case study in capitalism
When I moved to Jackson, Tenn, in 2010, I found that I e to the worst movie theater town I’d ever lived in. We had a 16-screen theater that was dirty and run down with fortable seating. To pany it, we had a newer facility on the edge of town that was clearly meant to be higher concept, but struggled right away and seemed to quickly give up on excellence. I don’t know if things started this way, but the...
Unemployment as economic-spiritual indicator — August 2019 report
Series Note: Jobs are one of the most important aspects of a morally functioning economy. They help us serve the needs of our neighbors and lead to human flourishing both for the individual and munities. Conversely, not having a job can adversely affect spiritual and psychological well-being of individuals and families. Because unemployment is a spiritual problem, Christians in America need to understand and be aware of the monthly data on employment. Each month highlight thelatest numberswe need to know...
