After a few weeks in Finland and a month in Canada with the family, I’m back in Wales and trying to buy a house in England. It’s been a busy week on the blog, so here’s your weekend reading roundup!


1.) Is Suella Braverman The Most Cruel Politician in Britain?

Tents, boat prisons, kidnap planes, and starvation are now par for the Conservative course.

2.) America Should Learn from Finland, Where Fines Are Proportional to Your Income

One hyper-rich dude got a $130,000 speeding ticket.

3.) The UK Government Has Gone Rogue

Fossil fuel corporations now dominate national politics.


We’ve also introduced a new weekly column to Surviving Tomorrow called This Week In Money, which helps you understand the history of economics. Here’s the most recent issue:

Henry Ford: If People Understood the Banking System, There’d Be a Revolution By Tomorrow Morning


I’ve also been promoting my new book, a myth-busting biography about the politics, economics, and philosophy of the world’s most influential revolutionary.

Common Good Magazine: What If Christians Have Stewardship All Wrong? (Hint: The Parable of the Talents doesn’t mean what you think it means.)

Red Letter Christians: Yehoshua the Rabbi (We can’t fully know Jesus without understanding his Jewishness.)

Belmont Village Church: A God Named… Josh? (I had the pleasure of sharing a Sunday teaching with my own dad!)

Here’s the trailer and a link to buy copies for summer reading and Christmas presents.
