Summary

Today on The Sword and The Trowel, Tom Ascol sits down with Dr. Tom Nettles, Founding Faculty Member at the Institute of Public Theology, and discusses with him how we as Christians should understand History, both the good and the bad. In the light of God's providence, what should we think about this idea of "cancel culture" and the wickedness going on in the culture around us? Does the law of God still apply today? How do we stand firm on God's word and seek to uphold His law in our current culture?
