"I Faked Speaking in Tongues": A Former Insider on Years of Televangelism
Kevin and Jacob look at 60 years of televangelism: the false Christ it presents, why it draws the poor and the disabled, and why people keep giving even when the promised hundredfold never arrives. They also take up a harder question. If God blesses obedience, why do faithful Christians like William Tyndale still suffer and die? And are today's 60 million podcasters any better than the televangelists?

Can A Woman Leave Her Father’s House Before Marriage? - Do Unmarried Women Belong To Their Fathers?
The Botkin sisters recently apologized for their book, So Much More, which argues that it’s nearly sinful for a woman to leave her father’s house before she is married.But were they right to issue this apology? What does the Bible say? Kevin Swanson and Josh Schwisow sift the scriptural indicatives and imperatives to figure out the answer…- What Numbers 30 really says about the extent of a father’s authority over his unmarried daughter- How to balance binding the consciences of single women vs. encouraging them to become single career-minded boss-babes freezing their eggs by the age of 30- Why it can actually be better for a daughter to leave the home, rather than staying – and at what age this starts to apply- How a woman should be preparing for marriage when single…and how she might need to leave the home to do this- How equating singleness with isolation/independence is a Marxist and statist view – and what the biblical alternative isGot a topic you want us to cover?

Where Are All the Heroes? — Raising Children for Christ's Kingdom
The media's heroes are celebrities famous for defying God. Who are God's heroes, and are we giving them to our children? Kevin Swanson and Danny Craig tell the stories of Wycliffe, Tyndale, William the Silent, and the Scottish Covenanters, including teenagers who chose death over denying Christ. Hebrews 11 gives us a cloud of witnesses. This episode calls parents to pass those stories on and raise sons and daughters to be God's heroes in their families, churches, and communities.

What Does Your Schedule Say About What Truly Matters To You?
Your family schedule is a statement about what matters most in your life. God has given us a tremendous gift in time – and everyone uses it for the things they believe to be the most important. Kevin Swanson, Todd Strawser, and Danny Craig talk about how to evaluate your schedule, and what it says about your goals, your objectives, and your reason for living. They discuss:- Is “me time” a Christian idea, and if not, does that mean we can never have time alone?- How much time should you spend on your own projects, vs your wife’s priorities, or your kids?- Are you spending too much time on work…and if so, how can you redeem it without becoming less productive?- Where is the balance with entertainment vs everything else that needs to happen – plus, should you do family worship on vacation?- When to stick to a schedule…when to reassess and readjust…and how to be “interruptable.”Let’s redeem the time, for the days are evil!Got a topic you want us to cover?

Here, Kevin Swanson interacts with James on how to engage the battle in the dangerous war of ideas—with meekness and fear.Download the episode MP3 here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/19884192-debating-worldviews-with-muslims-and-atheists-interview-with-james-white.mp3

Six Christian Cliches That Aren’t in Scripture
Many people claim to have “no creed but Christ,” yet when you ask them what they believe, you discover nothing but cliches like “let go and let God.”Kevin Swanson talks with Jack Lee from the Chorus in the Chaos podcast about the triteness of modern Christianity, and why people are so eager to trivialize the doctrines of Scripture. They look at the big cliches, and ask if the apostles ever said anything like that:- “Christianity is a relationship, not a religion” – why this ironically distorts people’s relationship with God so badly that it leads them to hell- “Just because it’s in a garage doesn’t make it a car, and just because you’re in a church doesn’t make you a Christian” – but is it possible to be a Christian WITHOUT being in a church?- “Ask Jesus into your heart” – does Jesus want to live in our ugly, wicked hearts, and did the apostles ever preach this way?- “God has a wonderful plan for your life” – really, what is it?- “Once saved, always saved” – how does that square with salvation as a resurrection to a new creation, if you’re still living in sin?Understanding the gospel is simple. But reducing the complexities of the Bible to coffee-cup phrases is really dangerous.Got a topic you want us to cover?
