NASA has spent a trillion dollars on space ventures looking for life in all the wrong places. Another $5.2 billion goes into searching for life in a frigid -270°F surface of one of Jupiter’s moons.

Increasingly, evangelical pastors are advising the use of foul language and obscene gestures. Is this ignorance concerning the symbolic connotations communicated in human language? Or, is it that there is little or no fear of God before their eyes? Why is it wrong to say, “Gosh darn it all to heck?” And, how does cursing differ from the imprecatory psalms? These are highly significant discussion items in an increasingly apostate age. Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.  Strong.

For the first time in history, women are leading the leaving of the faith. For the last 15 years, they have led the American apostasy on the pop-culture scene, and they have led in the popular evangelly-fish book market. Almost all top ten Christian books have been authored by women for the last 10 years or so, paving the exit ramps off the highway of orthodoxy for other women. But young men are going back to church. They want to hear the hard truths, and they are staying in discipleship. Good signs for the church in the 21st Century.Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.  Strong.

Disney is leading the culture again with the two largest blockbusters of the year—Inside Out 2 and Dead Pool 3—both heavy queer-coding, gender fluid-affirming, revolutionary cultural expressions. How much of Hollywood is effeminate, gender-fluid, and queer coded? More than you could imagine. But then again, so was the Globe Theater in 1590. The Puritans were as concerned about the theater then as we are now.

We may appreciate the trivium, or a careful study of history, or the great literature . . . but is it a Christ-centered history or a man-centered history? Is it pagan literature, or Christian literature? These are extremely critical questions with which Christian parents must grapple. Their children’s souls are at stake in regards to these matters. Here are some cautionary notes concerning classical education. The reintroduction of Greek humanism into the universities in the 1300s killed the faith once. Then again, the right-wing and left-wing enlightenment turned back to the Greeks in the 1700s—killing the Protestant faith. The same thing is happening today with a return to a humanistic epistemology and ethic. Bottom line, there isn’t nearly enough careful worldview discernment . . . among those classical teachers who have had their training in liberal arts from public schools, non-discerning Christian schools, and left-wing Christian liberal arts colleges.Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.  Strong.
