| 0:00.0 | Christians hear things like social justice and, you know, racial justice. |
| 0:05.5 | And it's like, yeah, you know, of course, you know, we're for that. |
| 0:12.3 | Marriage equality. |
| 0:14.2 | Well, am I for marriage in equality? |
| 0:17.4 | And when you have weak and faulty worldviews and then seductive language, and then you have leaders with unclear voices, you end up in the mess that we're in. |
| 0:34.6 | Raised by a Buddhist single mom in Los Angeles, Dr. Vadi Baccombe came of age during the height of Malcolm Axe and felt a pull toward the growing black nationalist movement. However, a conversion to Christianity in college completely reshaped his worldview. Voddy is a skeptic who came to Christ, an outsider who speaks the language of outsiders, he is a man worthy of respect. Vadi is a former pastor, |
| 0:54.3 | author, and educator, currently serving as dean of the School of Divinity at African Christian |
| 0:58.3 | University in Lusaka, Zambia, a university that seeks to transform Africa through biblically |
| 1:03.1 | based education. Whether teaching on the history of the Bible or marriage and family, he aims |
| 1:07.8 | to help ordinary people understand the significance of seeing the world through a biblical lens. Anyone who's heard him preach knows his conviction of word and spirit, |
| 1:15.6 | he's unafraid to challenge the current social justice movement, continuously demonstrates the |
| 1:19.4 | Bible's enduring relevance without trying to reshape God in man's image. On this Sunday special, |
| 1:24.5 | I sit down with Voddy to discuss his unusual path to faith, biblical masculinity, and the woke pastors who have infiltrated Christian churches around the world. |
| 1:31.9 | Plus, he explains how he came to find his true calling, to live and teach in Africa. |

Hey, hey, and welcome. This is the Ben Shapiro show. We are so excited to welcome Vody Bakum to the show. Vody, thanks so much for stopping by. I really appreciate it. Absolutely. It's my pleasure, man. So let's just jump right in. One of your big sort of causes is the fight over social justice. Obviously, the term |
| 2:11.0 | social justice is very contentious. So how do you define social justice and what do you think is wrong |
| 2:15.4 | with social justice? Yeah, I mean, I think social justice classically is defined as the redistribution of wealth, privileges, |
| 2:24.8 | and opportunities. Social justice is about equity, not equality, right? Not what we all grew up |
| 2:31.6 | with, you know, equal opportunity, but equity, equal outcomes. |
| 2:35.1 | So it's redistribution with a view toward achieving equal outcomes for various specified groups. |
| 2:44.8 | Again, there's a lot more, you know, involved in that, but that's the basic definition of it. |
