GRACE. Jesus didn't bring us religion; humans had long been sacrificing to the gods. His Gospel is an undeserved gift that overflows the heart and splashes out in waves that bless others.
ARCHY. A suffering servant is the true king. His "government" is made up of servants who voluntarily carry a cross, go the extra mile, and care for the weakest. Church and State don't govern that way, so you're "Done."
HOST. Jim Babka's career evolved from political campaigns to policy activism to principle-based philosophy. He discovered that politics corrupts character, the world hates being fixed, and debates disconnect persons. Chopping at the root requires us to address blame, envy, and scapegoating. The world needs Grace.

EP139 Charlie Kirk Political Lures & Lies or Grace - Gracearchy with Jim Babka
Charlie Kirk’s assassination shocked the nation. But how should we respond? In this episode, Jim Babka and Bill Protzmann offer a uniquely voluntaryist and grace-based analysis. They reflect on how power seduces partisans into mirroring the very monsters they oppose. They also explore...
• Why political force is always violence
• The danger of censorship, overreaction, and symbolic gestures
• How Kirk both enabled coercion and invited conversation
• What it means to truly stay grounded and act with grace
