Ep. 011: To Buy or Not to Buy
Join us on "To Buy or Not to Buy" as we explore if the tool of boycotting is as powerful as we think it is. From the very start with Captain Charles Cunningham Boycott to the modern-day resistance against woke corporations, boycotts have been a crucial tactic for patriots and nationalists to assert their values and reclaim their economic power. We'll delve into the biblical perspective of boycotts, examining what scripture tells us about resistance against unjust rulers and immoral systems. We'll also discuss the importance of boycotting companies, if it works, and if we think we should even boycott. Tune in to learn how you can use boycotts to take a stand for your nation, your family, and your faith.
