Discipleship in a Boat - Doing What Jesus Did

The root of the battle in this nation primarily lies in the area of education and the seminaries. There’s been a 26-percent drop-off of MDiv students over the last 20 years, with the number of men pursuing MDivs dropping by 22 percent, and the number of women dropping off by 33 percent. But while the seminary attendance has dropped by 26 percent overall, the number of seminaries has increased by 20 percent. This means the smaller seminaries are growing and expanding across the country. We’re getting back into the discipleship boat with Jesus. You can’t mass-produce discipleship. You can’t over-specialize discipleship. Instead, we must bring our focus back the Bible as the foundation of all of our knowledge, and bring back relationships, one at a time.

True Revival - Signs of God’s Work in Individuals and Churches

Revival is one of the biggest crying needs of the day. There is an overwhelming need for spiritual revisiting, for Holy Spirit life in our families and churches. While we’ve seen “revivals” in our day, it is nothing like the revivals of reformation times, or those in the 1700s. So what are the signs of real revival? Is it emotional? Or is it the result of true hunger for the Word and prayer? Kevin Swanson interviews Clint Stoltzfus on his new book, Revive Us: Prayers & Promises for Those in Need of Revival, on this edition of the program.

The Most Egregious Moral Downfall – Does God Only Judge Messy Abortions?

The kill pill is one of the most egregious moral downfalls in America, killing thousands of babies every year. Recently, it has been discovered that 10 percent of women taking the kill pill suffer serious complications. These discoveries are what have everyone concerned, but is the health of the mother more important than the life of the baby? Where was the concern for the babies being murdered? The kill pill is a clean method of murdering a baby, but God doesn't care how clean the methods are. He will judge every abortion equally.

Hypocrisy in America – Choosing Which of God's Laws to Follow

Hypocrisy is present all over. In the government, while transgenderism is too far, the Trump administration continues to appoint many homosexuals to positions of power. In Maryland, Muslim and Christian parents are complaining that their children are being subjected to learning about LGBTQ themes. However, if you are going to submit your children to humanism in the public school system, then you have to sign up for sexual autonomy too. And, if God's Word isn't part of everything about a child's life, you will raise hypocrites as well.

When to Leave a Church - Discipleship for Dads

How do you determine when to leave a church, and when you do leave, how should you leave the church? This is an important topic that all Christians need to address. The church is the family of God, and, even though so many have lost the importance of the church and what it means to God, Christians who truly love God will also love His church. It's important to work through conflicts with brothers and sisters. Don't judge others by externals. Focus on the foundation.

Can Jesus Be Portrayed in Film? - What Does the Bible Say About That?

Kevin Swanson and Josh Schwisow review House of David and The Chosen, considering the risk factors in watching these shows. It's important to distinguish between historical facts and made-up fiction.
