Our Principles and Policies radio show for Saturday November 29, 2014. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis discuss diverse topics like changing views of holidays like Thanksgiving and the effect of that on families, Gov. John Kasich, whether or not he is a “squish” or a RINO and his position on the Heartbeat Bill in the Ohio legislature, his understanding of biblical economics and his application of that. We use that to discuss what the Bible says about the law and the confiscation and reditribution of wealth. We also discuss Kasich’s support of Common Core on the same basis.
