The Generations Radio Program

Do we really want to take all the salt and light out of the public schools by removing our Christian kids? And what about socialization? How will homeschooling kids ever survive in a world where they haven’t learned to hang out with a peer group?  You have heard the common questions and the arguments. We provide some answers on this edition of the program. 

A study conducted by University of Basel and Rockefeller University looking at thousands of mitochondrial DNA from various animal species has found that no species is older than 200,000 years old. The vast majority of animal life was determined to be about the same age! But, why did such a tenuous scientific hypothesis attract such an enthusiastic reception from 99% of the scientific community?  W...

The transgendered, homosexualized Boy Scouts are not what they used to be. Medicare is seven years from bankruptcy now. Is it time to face the music? The old Americana is disappearing. There is no healthy cultural denominator left. America is fracturing. We wrestle with the question, "Do Christians abandon the systems or not?"

No area of moral decline is sharper right now than the area of drug use. It is the most commonly used drug by Christians and non-Christians alike. In fact, there is not statistically significant difference between the incidence of porn use among Christians and non-Christians. None. We still believe in Jesus, and encourage others to believe in Him. If the Son will set you free, this Son will make y...

In the latest popular animated movie from Disney, Mrs. Incredible gets her career while Mr. Incredible stays at home and plays Mr. Mom. Hollywood is spinning itself into irrelevance, but will it take the kids with it in the process? We review the Harvey Weinstein maelstrom and the fallen stars in his wake — at least 200 of them so far. Dustin Hoffman, Roman Polanski, Kevin Spacey, Oliver Stone.  B...

There is a positive side to the massive immigrations going on right now, as the mission field comes to our front doors. How do we engage the conversation with our Muslim neighbors?  Dr. James White presents a scholarly analysis of the Koran and the Muslim faith, walking through a methodology for witnessing to Muslims.

Franklin Graham wants us to return to biblical values in politics. He is encouraging involvement in politics. Is this reconstruction?  Is it possible to get too utopian about imposing Christian government over a society?  Is it dangerous to apply God’s law in politics? We discuss the Christian agenda in politics, and some of the pitfalls surrounding Christian activism.

Winners this season for the ABC Program, Dancing with the Stars were. . . Christians! But, Focus on the Family review calls the program "sexually-charged" in "all the clothes-shedding, leg-grabbing, floor-crawling maneuvers." So which is it? Christian? Or Non-Christian? We take a look at the argument, "If somebody calls it art, it has to be good." Who gets to call it...

The Catholics and Evangelicals join forces in St. Louis for a conference on “Gay Christians.”  The conference includes plentiful professors from Covenant Theological Seminary and Gordon Conwell Seminary.  The conference provides insight into the brokenness of modern evangelicalism, and the powerlessness of a weakening faith.  Then, we review Andy Stanley’s comments on unhitching Christianity from...

The verdict is in. The U.S. Supreme Court decided not to decide the Denver Baker case. Instead, the court remonstrated the Colorado Civil Rights Commission for being insensitive, disrespectful, rude, and even “hostile” in their disagreement with Jack Phillips’ ethics relating to homosexuality. Even the Supremes were shocked by the animus against Christians represented by the State of Colorado. Why...

The Methodists are accepting 111 homosexual clergy on last count.  We take up this common statement, "I have a gay friend."  Why would you advertise your friend's sins?  Or do people wear this sin as a badge?  Should we identify people with a particular sin in this way?  Kevin Swanson examines this mindset, and then points out that Jesus did not party with sinners and give them high...

We were surprised to find that the New York Times was concerned about the “moral rot” of the nation. Were they concerned with parents killing their children and the proliferation of sexual sin?  Not really.  The liberals call Donald Trump immoral for things like rudeness and his apparent advocacy of torture.   Shall the Republican define morality or the liberals define morality?  Or shall we defin...

The social and political instability intensifies. Institutions crumble under the weight of the social revolution and the moral chaos of the day. Here is a little commentary on the collapse of the last empire, and a tribute to Tom Wolfe, the best writer of epitaphs for empires anybody ever saw.  Age old institutions are cracking right now across the country. No political and religious leader is saf...

Was Satanic music influential upon the 17-year-old suspect in the Texas high school killings? Kevin Swanson identifies his musical influence (the Purturbator) as featured on the Church of Satan.com. Parents forget that music bears a strong influence on their kids. The music that young people listen to will shape them over time. Even instrumental music conveys a worldview, but what is that worldvie...

After some 1,400 years of Christian influence in the Western world, finally the last major nation (Ireland) topples to the pro-death, anti-Christian position. Some end times gurus are asking the question, “Is this the end of the millennium?” The Catholics have no influence in Ireland, and the Protestant Christians have lost influence as well. Given that only parts of Africa and South America remai...

No single person has ever made more of an impact on the world than Jesus Christ. This statement would have been hard to say in A.D. 85, but there is no question about it today. Jesus has affected our calendar, language, idioms, social mores, treatment of women, charity, hospitals, economics, science, liberty, music, art, and abolishment of chattel slavery. Kevin Swanson interviews Dr. Alvin Schmid...

On May 15th, California Judge Daniel Ottolia affirmed life when he overturned the 2-year-old physician-assisted suicide law which had led to the deaths of 111 Californians, noting that the legislature acted unconstitutionally. Guest host  Adam McManus  talks with Dr. David Stevens, president of the 19,000-member  Christian Medical & Dental Association , who says, "Assisted suicide is not...

An Australian sexuality expert has suggested that parents ask permission before changing a baby's diaper.  Permission of whom?  The baby, of course!  Why?  In order to create a culture of consent.  Join Bill and Steve as they explore what other permissions parents should seek with their children.  For example, should mothers ask permission of the unborn before aborting them?

Guest host  Adam McManus  interviews Allan Parker, President of  The Justice Foundation , about President Trump's "Protect Life Rule" announced last Friday which will prevent Title X programs from conducting, counseling for, or referring for abortion, denying $60-$170 million in tax money to Planned Parenthood. Parker blames GOP Senators  Susan Collins of Maine and  Lisa Murkowski o...

Secular education has taken over the entire western world, and now we are exporting this humanism to Africa in an effort to destroy the faith. Other nations still have some opportunity for salvage. We discuss the difference between secular education and a distinctively Christian education at every point. Kevin Swanson discusses the recent experiences presenting homeschooling and Christian educatio...

Planned Parenthood is the most powerful abortion provider and abortion lobby in the world. A billion dollar organization, about 1/3 of its income comes from our tax dollars. But one little homeschooled girl found five smooth stones down at the brook, and tossed one at the giant, just to see what would happen. Lila Rose is part of a team of young pro-lifers who have found a way to strip the facade...

Ever since the Boy Scouts betrayed their founding values and welcomed homosexual scouts and scoutmasters, then transgenders, and now girls, a relatively new Christian alternative has gained steam called  Trail Life . Since 2013, this new, boys-only organization with Biblical values has nearly 30,000 members in 750 troops in 48 states.  Listen to guest host  Adam McManus  interview Mark Hancock, th...

Being able to share your faith with others is an incredible blessing. Not only that, but as we start to grow older, we begin to see God working in our children's lives as they seek to witness and build God's Kingdom. Tune in to this edition of Generations Radio to hear Kevin and Emeal Zwayne talk about spreading the good news and our role in The Great Commission.

Former Supreme Court Justice, John Paul Stevens, has encouraged the repealing of the second amendment. Why should it not matter if the second amendment is repealed? According to an article by Benjamin Dierker, the constitution may not actually give the rights to bear arms. Tune into this edition of Generations Radio to find out how Bill Jack and Steve Vaughan interact with this issue.

Bill Jack and Steve Vaughan discuss Worldview Academy and Bill's recent trip to Metro State University to engage students with tough questions, as well as the excellent opportunities that Worldview Academy's students have to share their faith on college campuses all across the U.S. To sign up for Worldview Academy, go to worldview.org .
