What if the deepest moral truths are already written on the human heart? Natural law, faith and reason, and moral philosophy take center stage in this powerful conversation with Dr. J. Budziszewski on the Just Steward Podcast. Hosts Michael Frigon and Doug Connolly explore how natural law reveals universal moral truths through conscience, human design, natural consequences, and divine revelation. Dr. Budziszewski explains the danger of self-deception, why society struggles with coherence in a post-logical culture, and how faith and reason together illuminate the path toward truth. From the meaning of marriage to the challenge of teaching truth in modern universities, this episode offers a profound guide for anyone seeking clarity about morality, culture, and the human condition.
