  Matthew 24:42-44 In-Context

  40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

  41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

  42 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

  43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

  44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

  45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time?

  46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

Does Russell Kirk still matter in today’s America?
Many might not even recognize the name “Russell Kirk,” and those who do often do not know the true impact of his contributions. Kirk quickly rose to prominence in American political discourse during the 1950s, but fell from the public eye following Barry Goldwater’s defeat in the 1964 presidential election, whom Kirk had firmly supported. But at this year’s Acton University, Bradley Birzer, a professor of history at Hillsdale College, and the Russell Amos Kirk Chair in American Studies, outlined...
Arvo Pärt on the economy of wonder
Our society has grown increasingly transactional in its ways of thinking, whether about family, business, education, or politics. Everything we spend, steward, or invest — our money, time, and relationships — must somehow secure an immediate personal return or reward, lest it be cast aside as “wasteful.” As an overarching philosophy of life, such an approach fails not due only due to its narrow individualism, but also to its cramped obsession with scarcity, standing in stark contrast with the lavish...
Made on the sixth; made for the seventh
In his Acton University lecture titled “Creation and the Image of God,” Scott Hahn began with the assertion that we often ask the wrong questions about the creation story in Genesis. Instead of focusing on scientific questions of exactly when God created and how, we should be asking what God created and why. These are questions of theological anthropology, i.e. the understanding of God that is necessary for the understanding of man. Hahn uses biblical theology in order to answer...
The surprising, economic reason 157,000 British children were never born
Students of the free market say that economics is merely human action. Economists also understand that policies have unintended consequences – such as reducing the number of children born in a nation. The Adam Smith Institute, based in London, has released a new report describing one such consequence due, in part, to central planning and overregulation. The British housing crisis has inadvertently discouraged women from having 157,000 children, its report finds. Young couples in the UK increasingly struggle to afford...
Radio Free Acton: Chris Armstrong on medieval wisdom; Upstream on Monterey Pop at 50
On today’s Radio Free Acton we share an interview from Acton University with Chris Armstrong, Wheaton College Professor and author of the new book book Medieval Wisdom for Modern Christians: Finding Authentic Faith in a Forgotten Age with C.S. Lewis. We take a look at the difference between modern and medieval Christians, and examine what makes a good story. Then we talk with RFA Chief Cultural Correspondent (and newly minted mentator at Forbes) Bruce Edward Walker on the 50th anniversary...
What do Americans mean by “socialism”?
Campus Reform, a project of the Leadership Institute,recently interviewed students in Washington, D.C. to get their opinions on socialism. Not surprisingly, most of them were all for it. And also not surprisingly, most of them could not explain what they mean by socialism. While it’s tempting to mock these students for supporting an economic system they can’t define, I’m not sure those of us on the right side of the political spectrum can do any better. I remember hearing that...
Why did medieval monks preserve pagan literature?
Many educated people – though perhaps not enough – know that it was medieval monks who preserved classical culture. Between their daily offices, the monks huddled in their cells by candlelight to copy the great cultural artifacts of Western civilization. But why did they preserve works that had been produced by, and often reflected, the pagan ethos of ancient Rome? In an essay for the August issue ofFirst Things, professor Rémi Bragueanswers questions such as: What is culture? How does...
Introduction to the competitive firm
Note: This is post #41 in a weekly video series on basic microeconomics. We tend to assume profit—the bottom line—is the main motivation for a firm’s actions, says economist Alex Tabbarok. For most firms most of the time, this is a good assumption, especially in petitive market. This video by Marginal Revolution University explores how pany maximizes profit in petitive environment where there are many buyers and sellers. (If you find the pace of the videos too slow, I’d mend...
