At least 5 million Americans have Dementia, and about 50% of our fathers and mothers will have the disease by the time they reach 90 years of age. As Christians, we can rest assured that God has a reason for this disease as it afflicts our loved ones. What is it like to experience Dementia? Do personalities change? Are there certain things that cause dementia . . . or hasten the onset of it? Here...

After reviewing the heroes in the city of man, we contrast the heroes of faith in the 20th century, of whom the world is not worthy. Kevin Swanson lists those who maintained a strong faith despite the massive apostasy that blew across England, America, and the West. They stood for the centrality of God against the centrality of man while humanism was on the rise. They are theologians, pastors, cul...

Almost half of Republicans and Democrats admit they would resort to violence to advance their agenda. Is the problem a slip in faith in democracy, or a wrong view of the state? What everybody has right is that there is something very wrong with the nation. It's the root cause and the antidote that folks are not getting right. The solutions to social challenges will only be found in a rebuild...

Hungary, Poland, and Russia are moving pro-life. But now, Western Europe is getting worse and worse. What gives? The UK labor party threatens two years in the quod for misgendering. But now, is J.K. Rowling repenting of advocating for the LGBT movement back in the early 2000s? She used to have a disagreement with Kevin Swanson over Dumbledore. We end the program with a discussion on how to speak o...

Oregon has become a portrait of what a spiritually-bankrupt, burned-out, post-Christian blue state looks like. It's the worst state in America on the Evil Index, and here's why. The school system has failed—it’s the worst in the nation. First state to legalize adult-killing, marijuana, etc. is losing residents fast now. Have the churches really demonstrated any substantial faith? Oregon...

Wars and rumors of wars are on the increase. For the year 2022, Uppsala University reports the highest number of wars in modern history (since World War II). Vulnerabilities and instabilities run higher than ever now. We present a little history on the root cause for the wars of the nations. But now . . . the lines are increasingly drawn between traditionalist countries that still have some sense...

Here we interview Michael Phillips, editor of George MacDonald's materials and the author of a new book called "Endangered Virtues and the Coming Ideological War." What are the basic virtues without which civilization is not possible? And how shall we then live in an age of immaturity, insobriety, escapism, relativism, fear, and abandoned rationality? Michael Phillips recommends dis...

Man is always a moral creature, and yet what happens when Harvard University loses its moral compass? The compass is spinning out of control now, and nobody knows which woke is the wokest. Why was antisemitism a sin, and on what basis? What about abortion? What about anything that goes on in this world? The secular university has a really hard time answering those questions. Here we review the dec...

Italy, Sweden, and the US are the most tattooed nations on Earth. Now, 56% of women ages 18 to 29 and 53% of women ages 30 to 49 are tattooed in this country. The post-Christian nations went for it at the turn of the 21st century, while pagan nations went the other way. Cultural expression is the externalization of worldview. Generally, cultural phenomenon is an honest reflection of a person'...

Increasingly socialist nations are run by idealist young people and women . . . and women-led nations are almost exclusively Roman Catholic. Now, 55% of women in this country identify with socialism. But, not all women. Feminists find their security in the state. . . . They have given up on the biblical family . . . and marriage . . . and their hope is that the state will take care of them and the...

Men and manhood have been increasingly targeted by the zeitgeist. Evangelical Christian men are accused of being oppressive patriarchs and prone to abuse. Author and professor Nancy Pearcey dismisses the bad stereotypes and points out the internal contradictions in the anti-male worldview that predominates throughout the academic and social systems of the day.

The number of witches in the US increased from 8,000 in 1990 to 340,000 in 2008, and exceeded 1.5 million in 2020. Halloween expenditures in the US have doubled since 2007, and the horror genre in the movie theater has almost tripled in marketshare in 10 years. There are three worldviews that collide in these films—the sovereignty of God, the sovereignty of man, and the sovereignty of evil. The fe...

Streaming TV now runs a 95% to 5% ratio on mature to family friendly programming. Fifteen years ago, that was closer to a 45% to 55% ratio. Then again, social media is displacing everything now with its own destructive world and social view in mind. Christian families too often give way to the world and the devil when it comes to media. How do we overcome the world? We explain from Scripture.

War inevitably introduces atrocities, and the foul nature of sinful man comes out in full color at times like this. Briefly, we look at atrocities from the US Civil War, World War II, and the present. We are to view these atrocities through a biblical lens, and of course apply Micah 6:8 at every point.

Here we summarize a basic worldview on war—the cause of war, the rules of warfare, assigning blame, and ways to avoid war. The best way to avoid war is Proverbs 16:7. When a man's ways please the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. How might our leaders please the Lord?

Years ago, Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris called for "natural selection to take its course." That was what they put on their website, and then they killed 13 innocent students and staff at Columbine High School in the Denver Metro area. One father still feels the pain of it. Brian Rohrbaugh recounts that terrible day that he lost his son to the shooters, and what he learned from it. How d...

Evangelicalism is coming apart on the question of repentance. Does following Jesus include leaving the world and the LGBT lifestyle? Does a sinner need to be repentant to be part of a church, or should the homosexual, the homosexual “married” guys, the pedophiles, and others feel comfortable joining the rest of the sinners sitting in the pews? Did Jesus draw lines or circles? What does the parent...

Following the recent terrorist attack on Israel, we review the history of Palestinian wars. Worldwide, Islamic adherents grew by 700 million people in 23 years. Christian adherents flatlined since 2000. And Judaism dropped. The Islamic state is on the rise in the world. Iran. Afghanistan. Indonesia. Nigeria. Turkey. Palestine. Tensions with Iran are on the increase. Israel appears to be leaning se...

A recent survey discovered that Donald Trump used religious language much more than any other president in 100 years. And another survey found that Trump is considered the most religious candidate for president among Republicans. What gives? We compare Donald Trump with Grover Cleveland. And what is that which constitutes substantial faith—especially when contrasted with superficial religious phra...

Another survey discovers that pastors at mainline Protestant churches are far more likely to identify as liberal than the congregants in the same churches. Too many young pastors are overwhelmed with the conflicts and the spiritual battles that go on in the churches. We recommend restoring discipleship and mentorship in the local churches instead of relying so heavily on large seminaries.

The government's endorsement of sexual perversion is increasingly leading to the government's endorsement of child sexual abuse. Phillip Zodhiates set out to help a child who, according to witnesses, was held by the state in a homosexual home, and abused. Now, the civil case against Phillip could very well establish precedent to normalize and legalize child sexual abuse. Phillip joins us...

Will conservative talk show hosts or pastors take the prophetic call to this generation? Tucker Carlson refers to abortion as human sacrifice, and ties in pagan cultures throughout history. Why has America reverted back to human sacrifice with such enthusiasm? And what are the differences between pagan cultures like the Carthaginians and our world today? 

The worldwide faith tradeoff from North and West to South and East was laid out in the 2023 release of Gordon Conwell Seminary's  Status of Global Christianity Report —a stark illustration of the collapse Western Christianity. Christian adherents in Europe and North America as a percentage of the world population dropped by more than half between 1900 and 2023 (from 21.9% to 10.5%), while the...

Southern Baptist leading voice, Al Mohler, remarked recently that Andy Stanley has departed from the Christian faith. But what is it that constitutes abandoning the faith? What are the irreducible elements of the Christian faith? We can entertain intramural debates with the Christian churches and denominations, but there is a limit. Where is the line?

All the Republican years, the years of Conservative media, the Rush Limbaugh years, the Heritage Foundation, the Reagan Years, the Fox News years turned out to be a waste of time, a waste of rhetoric, a waste of votes, a whole lot of hot air, and much ado about nothing. We always got more government deficits and budget increases under Republicans. The 80,000,000 Americans that went to the polls to...
