The Generations Radio Program

Here’s the first 120 hours of the new administration. Trump was saved by God, but why? Was this to make America great again? Or was this to make America humble again? Out of the starting gate, Trump is taking his Romans 13 responsibilities seriously—defending borders and exercising proper justice in regards to criminals. He is releasing the innocent, including the pro-lifers (as of the recent news). But will the nation make progress on abortion and pulling back on the liberal agenda in the schools?

The job that God has given to dads is the most important job in the world. What dads are doing is fundamental for the health of the family, the health of the church, and society at large. Discipleship of the nations starts in our own homes. Kevin Swanson, Bill Roach, and Danny Craig discuss both the fundamentals of discipleship and specific questions around child-rearing, maintaining unity in one’s marriage, and how to cultivate gratitude in the home on this edition of the Generations program.

Kevin Swanson and Danny Craig engage in a conversation, addressing specific questions from listeners. They speak to the importance of a father in the lives of his children, and what their role is, in a practical sense. While the world is in chaos and families are falling apart, Christian fathers need to be submitting to God, correcting, coaching, and mentoring their children, and loving their wives. 

Who’s to blame for these fires and hurricanes that are damaging our country? Reparations are running close to 2 percent of the GNI, just enough to tip us into recession. God brings it, but God can save us. Shall we trust insurance agencies, FEMA, princes, and horses? Or better yet, shall we trust God?

Here is the shocking story of the most popular homeschooling mommy-blogger - Ruby Franke. The reports were that, “This family looks soooo beautiful!” She had a billion views, but now she’s serving up to 30 years in prison. The cults do well with this. The worldly media is all about this. What matters most is the externals . . . the appearances . . . but not so much the heart. 

How does one fight the wars that are raging today around things like abortion or the homosexual agenda? Is just anyone suited for the fight? We must remember a few basic principles, not least of which is that we are fighting principalities and powers as we engage the battle with the culture. Kevin Swanson and Steve Vaughan discuss strategies for the fight, and review the life of Anita Bryant on this edition of the program.

Nothing encapsulates and exemplifies the spirit of the age like Joe Rogan. The modern youth are enraptured by diversions, a constant stream of the f-words, conspiracies, drugs, and UFO’s. In a word . . . unhinged. This is nihilistic, hard-edged, constantly-vacillating relativism on steroids. Sadly, the young people in the church have been affected by this spirit. The only possible solution is to be nailed down to the deck of God’s truth (God’s law-word) with 400 sixteen-penny nails. 

Taking a position on truth is pretty unpopular today, but there are still some who have the courage to do it in the public forum. Dr. James White is one of the nation's most active Christian apologists and debaters, having debated atheists, Muslims, etc. over the last twenty years. Here Kevin Swanson interacts with James on how to engage the battle in the dangerous war of ideas—with meekness and fear. 

The teenage phenomenon and peer culture has captured the modern world. The thing was born on October 12, 1944—now almost 80 years ago. Only the 98-year-old men and women would have been there to commemorate this revolution. For 5,944 years of world history, there was no peer orientation and peer pressure as what kids face today. Here, we bring a biblical comparison between fearing God (and honoring parents) and fearing peers. The destructive consequences of this social revolution are everywhere now. But, how do we pick up the pieces and rebuild a healthy family and church culture today? This program offers a start to the conversation. 

Everything is excused in the alternate universes created for the fantasy worlds in an age of rabid autonomy. Post-Christian man is cutting himself loose from the bonds of God’s law in his own imagination. This begins with Matilda Joslyn Gage and Frank Baum and then continues with the J.K. Rowlings of the world. The same sort of thing is happening now with the Western infatuation with pagan manga and anime.
