| 0:00.0 | Well, welcome back, everybody to the podcast for Cultural Reformation, brought to you by the |
| 0:29.2 | Ezra Institute. I'm Dr. Joe Boot, president and founder of Ezra. And it is wonderful to be back again for another episode of the podcast, live from our, |
| 0:43.3 | well, I guess you're watching the recording, so it's not live now, but we are here live at ReformCon, |
| 0:49.3 | out of the ashes, here in Arizona, and we're taking the opportunity that we get, you know, maybe annually at a major event like this, |
| 0:59.0 | to speak to some of our good friends, our fellows, and our lecturers about some of the issues that they are addressing |
| 1:08.0 | as we think about what it means for us as believers to rebuild culture |
| 1:13.2 | biblically in terms of the kingdom of God and the lordship of Jesus Christ. This is much more |
| 1:20.1 | than about some political idea that we're not talking about politics as such. We're talking about |
| 1:25.9 | a biblical world and life view and how that applies to every |
| 1:29.5 | area of life, including the political. And so those of you who are regular listeners will know |

| 1:41.8 | podcast is to speak to a really good friend of the Institute who |
| 1:45.3 | actually does kind of behind the scenes work for us, which I won't go into on the show, |
| 1:50.4 | um, uh, whose name you will no doubt recognize, um, and who has spoken at events with us |
| 1:56.9 | before I get the opportunity to see our guest. Uh, Usually I run into him two or three times a year |
| 2:02.4 | somewhere in America. And that is David Barnson. Of course, those who view are theonomic |
| 2:12.4 | and have done the reading will know of the Ministry of Greg Barson and the impact that David's father |
| 2:18.6 | had on my own thinking and that of the Ezra Institute. But David himself is managing partner |
| 2:24.7 | of the Barnson group, as he sometimes says, as a young man found himself in a certain sense, |
| 2:32.4 | an orphan, penniless, but learned to trust and obey the living God. |
| 2:39.7 | And God has used him mightily, and it's a privilege for us to have him on the podcast today. |
| 2:44.0 | David, thank you very much for joining me. |
