About this listen

Principles are the order that surrounds us. They simply exist, whether we practice them or not. They’re always present, and there are no substitutes. Their effects are known and repeatable, even when their cause isn’t. They're more enduring than the elements on the periodic table.

So, why does it feel like society is in a perpetual state of chaos and decay? The answer is simple. Because principles are eternal in the dimension in which they’re fixed. Chaos does not have a natural state. It’s the fallout that results when we ignore, or perhaps don’t understand, principles.

Truth is truth, you see. It either is or is not. It is neither abstract nor relative. It’s not nearly as complex as nuclear fusion, but when a culture attempts to redefine or distort it, dangerous chain reactions can follow. When this happens on a large scale in any society, it will disintegrate.

Welcome to sanctioned chaos in the age of infotech! A completely new level of control in the post-internet un-United States. It can fix elections, shut down the economy, and, unchecked, re-synthesize the American way of life. But it's fascinating; the solutions are as rudimentary as the elements. Or, are we so educated that we no longer need faith? Perhaps we are so cultured that we no longer need families?

Sanctioned Chaos confronts the cultural exodus from religion toward secularism. It reframes the family as the centerpiece of the American dream and the real solution to the macro-level crises we see in modern culture. The book is as relevant and poignant an expedition as a listener will find through the conflicted messaging of pious tradition and a self-worshipping society. Each chapter traverses the chaos and noise of pop culture, stepping the listener through deeply personal life questions. Answers are distilled with biographical snapshots from the author's life, seen through the lens of eight contemporary cultural crises.
