Rick Scarborough is the Founder and President of Vision America, an organization whose mission is to, "inform and mobilize Pastors and their congregations to become salt and light, becoming pro-active in restoring Judeo-Christian values in America."
Ingrid began this Crosstalk with news headlines echoing the financial gloom that hovers over our nation at this time. In spite of the gloom, Washington legislators managed to hammer out a 700 billion dollar bailout bill that was signed into law. The problem is, the bill includes an additional 150 billion in pork barrel projects. How can we afford this if we're supposedly having financial difficulties?
Join Rick as he explains how this "pork" was used to garner the votes necessary to get the bailout bill passed, the moral component to this decision and its ramifications, how Christians should respond, and more.
