Summary

Tune in to hear Pastor Wilson talk about the broken window fallacy. Then he plugs Love & Respect, and wraps things up with a talk about the Greek word “Akrates”. Happy Plodding! Show Notes: The Broken Window Fallacy: if I throw a brick through someones window, is that an economic stimulus? what if I throw a brick through every window? this will create a lot of work for glass companies, and this is what people see but the people don’t see what the car owners would have spent their money on the money that they spend on the window is money that they won’t spend anywhere else we can’t just pretend that we are sophisticated because we intend to look at one half of the picture only Love & Respect written by Emerson Eggerichs addresses the differences in women when it comes to the desire in love and respect devoted to sort out marriage problems because of this difference in men and women the bible commands us according to our weakness and according to our spouses needs Eggerichs walks through this and gives a ton of advice for couples on how to walk through it all Akrates used once in NT (2 Tim. 3:3) it means incontinent sins are cleary like grapes they come in clusters
