Is Hell Eternal? – What Does the Bible Say About That?
Questions about the nature of hell and the destiny of the soul are resurfacing in the church, often framed as matters of nuance or speculation. Scripture, however, speaks with deliberate gravity—placing eternal punishment and eternal life side by side. These doctrines are meant to shape reverence, humility, and urgency, not fearfulness or indifference.Download the episode MP3 here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18429853-is-hell-eternal-what-does-the-bible-say-about-that.mp3

The West Turns on God’s Law - Why Liberty Cannot Survive Apostasy
The greatest threat to liberty is not immigration, economics, or political disagreement—it is Christian apostasy. When churches abandon truth, the culture loses its moral anchor and the state fills the vacuum with coercion. The West is learning, once again, that freedom cannot outlast faithlessness. Liberty fades wherever God’s authority is denied.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18424088-the-west-turns-on-god-s-law-why-liberty-cannot-survive-apostasy.mp3

Starting a Family Business: The Risks and Rewards of Entrepreneurial Discipleship - Discipleship for Dads
For generations, Christian homes operated as miniature economies where moms, dads, and children worked, served, and built together—but that vision has been largely lost. The dads explain why recovering it is essential for raising responsible sons, diligent daughters, and families who take dominion for Christ. They discuss risk-aversion, skill-building, mentorship, starting small, and how ordinary dads can reintroduce entrepreneurial life into their homes.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18415191-starting-a-family-business-the-risks-and-rewards-of-entrepreneurial-discipleship-discipleship-for-dads.mp3

The Danger of Christmas - When the Symbols Replace the Savior
Christmas becomes dangerous when the symbols grow larger than the Savior they were meant to proclaim. Mangers, music, gifts, and traditions can quietly replace worship if they are detached from the cross and the gospel. Families must come back to the full story of Christ—from incarnation and humiliation to death, resurrection, and kingship. True joy is found not in the celebration itself, but in the Savior it points to.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18413313-the-danger-of-christmas-when-the-symbols-replace-the-savior.mp3

Christian Schooling — What Does the Bible Say About That?
Christian schools promise safety, but safety is found only in obedience to God’s design. When education separates knowledge from character and learning from obedience, it produces pride rather than wisdom. Scripture calls parents to teach diligently as they sit, walk, rise, and lie down. True education is not measured by information transferred, but by lives shaped in the fear of the Lord.Download the episode MP3 here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18410522-christian-schooling-what-does-the-bible-say-about-that.mp3

Pro-Choice America After Dobbs – The Verdict Is In
The data is sobering: abortion support is rising, abortion pills are becoming normalized, and even self-identified evangelicals are divided where clarity should reign. This is reminiscent of Judah’s collapse after Josiah - top-down reform without grassroots doesn’t save a nation. Christians need to stop hiding behind soft language, speak plainly about murder and the 6th commandment, and seek cleansing through the blood of Christ.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18404045-pro-choice-america-after-dobbs-the-verdict-is-in.mp3

Parental Rights, Social Media Bans, and the State – Who Really Raises Our Kids?
Australia wants to ban social media for kids under 16, school shooters’ parents face 180-year sentences, and Western governments increasingly act like surrogate parents. Kevin and Bill ask the big question: who actually has God-given authority over children—parents, the state, or the child himself?Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18396837-parental-rights-social-media-bans-and-the-state-who-really-raises-our-kids.mp3

Stopping Spiritual Drift in Your Family – Discipleship for Dads
Spiritual drift is rarely dramatic—it’s quiet, subtle, and often unnoticed until you’ve drifted “900 miles” from where you started. Kevin and the dads talk honestly about the warning signs: selfishness, prayerlessness, skipped family worship, and hearts more drawn to entertainment than to Christ. They walk through anchors and rhythms—daily Word, prayer, Lord’s Day, honest confession—and share practical ways to shepherd sleepy, distracted families back to spiritual alertness and joy in Christ.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18383395-stopping-spiritual-drift-in-your-family-discipleship-for-dads.mp3

When Empires Fall: Why Christians Should Welcome Decentralization
If America’s centralized systems crack, is that only bad news? Kevin and Bill compare our moment to the collapse of Rome and the so-called “Dark Ages,” when the gospel quietly discipled Europe for centuries. They explain how centralized power devalues the individual, feeds elitism, and makes it easier for principalities and powers to capture education, media, and law. Then they sketch a biblical alternative: family economies, local churches with real jurisdiction, and a nation of millions of obedient households instead of one towering state.Download the episode MP3 here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18377546-when-empires-fall-why-christians-should-welcome-decentralization.mp3

What Does the Bible Say About Social Security? - What Does the Bible Say About That?
Is Social Security just neutral math, or a moral issue for Christians? Kevin Swanson and Josh Schwisow open Matthew 15, 1 Timothy 5, and the example of Jesus on the cross to show that God assigns elder care first to children, grandchildren, and the local church—not the state. They expose Social Security as an unsustainable Ponzi scheme propped up by birth implosion and political denial, and then cast a hopeful vision for families, diaconates, and congregations that tithe, give, and prepare to care for their own widows when the system cracks.Download the episode MP3 here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2520780/episodes/18369455-what-does-the-bible-say-about-social-security-what-does-the-bible-say-about-that.mp3
