Summary
Hosts
What is the difference between an immigrant and an invader? Well, it depends. The difference may be one of legality (i.e., the positive law) or it may be one of frame. If one man tells you that he is “for immigration” and another tells you that he is “against immigration”, then the latter has likely ceded ground without even realizing it. Words, of course, matter, but so does the way in which we (and others) employ them. Correct framing may win a conflict before it has even begun, but incorrect framing can just as easily make victory impossible.
For the Christian, it is vitally important to be able to identify and to assess framing. Wicked men can — and do — employ framing to ensnare the Christian, to elicit from the Christian support for wicked positions he would not wittingly support. In fact, you may hold positions contrary to Scripture because of how they were framed — and because you failed to examine what you believe.

| 0:39.3 | I am Corey J. Mahler. |
| 0:41.3 | And I'm Woe. |
| 0:43.3 | Today we are going to be talking about the concept of frame. |
| 0:47.3 | It's a term that came from psychology and Corey is going to define that in a minute. |
| 0:52.3 | But to begin, I'd just like to give a brief example to sort of set the frame for this discussion. |
| 0:58.0 | So imagine that you are overlooking a large grassy field. |
| 1:03.2 | It's a featureless field. |
| 1:04.8 | There's no discernible objects there, except for a bison in the center of the field. |
| 1:13.3 | It's a big 2,000-pound animal right in the middle. You can see it clearly. And about 100 yards away to the west, you can see a man facing that bison. |
| 1:20.6 | So there's a man he's facing east towards the bison in the field. You can see all of this. |
| 1:26.5 | Now, picture in your mind a sort of a penciled in |
| 1:30.7 | diagram like you might find in a textbook where there's a plane, there's a rectangle about |
| 1:36.4 | halfway between the man and the bison that's perpendicular to him. So there's a rectangle |
| 1:41.5 | that's basically the man's field of view. So it's going to be pretty |
| 1:44.7 | large. It's going to fill up everything that he can see. It's going to be a good chunk of the size |
| 1:50.0 | of the field itself. And then picture four lines from the corner of each corner of the rectangle |
| 1:56.7 | back to the man's head. So what that rectangle is showing is his field of view, |
| 2:03.8 | is what he can see in his visual field. |
| 2:08.0 | It's anything outside of it. |
| 2:10.4 | He can't see, or at least can't see clearly. |
| 2:12.3 | It might be in his peripheral vision, |
