With the changes our nation* and world have experienced in the past four years, one might think that a video from the 2016 IFI Worldview Conference would be dated, but Dr. Wayne Grudem’s remarks are as pertinent now as ever.

To begin his presentation, Dr. Grudem defines a free-market system and lists the factors that determine the degree of freedom.
