In this episode, Douglas Wilson argues that exposing corruption still requires real prosecutions and consequences, continues his hamartiology series with moichos as the Greek word for adulterer, and reviews Richard Baxter’s A Call to the Unconverted as a warm, urgent, and reformed evangelistic appeal.
