Jacob Winograd explores why libertarianism—when grounded in Scripture—is more than a political theory; it’s a means of living out Christian faith with integrity. He connects biblical principles of stewardship, justice, and mercy to the way we think about law, economics, and the use of power, showing how liberty reflects the ethics of Christ in every sphere of life.

Drawing from Scripture, Austrian economic insights, and a consistent application of proportional justice, Jacob presents three reasons liberty matters for Christians: it fosters faithful stewardship of God’s creation and resources, it equips believers to balance justice and mercy without coercion, and it demands alignment between our private convictions and public actions. From there, Jacob challenges the mindset that government power can solve moral problems—exposing how state overreach, central economic control, and the criminalization of sin distort both justice and the gospel. He urges Christians to reject domination in all its forms and to live out the self-governance, accountability, and love for neighbor that mark the kingdom of God.

In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd rebroadcasts a powerful conversation originally aired on the Libertarian Christian Institute’s Greenroom. His guest is Dr. Benj Giffone, author of House Divided: The Church, COVID, and the Digital Age. Together they examine how churches responded to government lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic, asking whether the widespread embrace of Zoom worship revealed deeper theological weaknesses. From sacramental theology and the nature of embodied worship to the influence of technology and the idol of respectability, the conversation urges Christians to consider what it means for the Church to be essential.

Benj, an Old Testament scholar and Presbyterian minister, brings a rich ecumenical and biblical perspective, drawing from his experience as a missionary and pastor during the pandemic in Europe. Jacob and Benj discuss everything from liturgical practices to the danger of scientism in the Church, and challenge listeners to rediscover the meaning of Christian community, embodied faith, and biblical resistance to state overreach. This is a timely and vital conversation for anyone reflecting on what the Church must reclaim before the next crisis arrives.

In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob Winograd replays his appearance on the Libertarian Christian Podcast. In this engaging discussion, Jacob and host Cody Cook delve into the concept of Biblical Anarchy, examining its roots, definitions, and implications for modern Christian thought and governance. The conversation traverses a wide range of topics, including the interpretation of Romans 12-13, the role of self-ownership in Christian doctrine, critiques of property and governance, and the historical contributions of figures like Murray Rothbard. By dissecting both biblical texts and philosophical arguments, Jacob seeks to provide a nuanced understanding of a decentralized, non-coercive system of governance grounded in Christian beliefs - and to demonstrate why Anarchy isn't what people think it is.
