The Generations Radio Program

What is there to say about the paranormal and mildly supernatural events? What is the possibility of life on Mars some time in the past, or life anywhere else in the world? What could have produced the water-constructing comets as well as the deep river valley on Mars? A biblical view of creation and the flood certainly allows for this. But, be careful of diversions!

The Word of God has something to say about every area of life . . . including work and business life. The Bible contains over 2,000 verses that talk about money. Forty percent of Jesus’ parables speak to economics—and address real life. On this edition of the Generations Radio program, Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss Christians in business, and give some input on MLMs.

These are ignominious years for Western Christianity, as the cultural influence of the church wanes in Australia, the US, and elsewhere. Brief mention is made of the Acts 29 and Hillsong phenomenon. If there were a reformation, what would it look like? How do you sift out empty zeal, useless revivals, and false Jesus’s to find something more substantial? Real reformation does not consist of more s...

A pastor goes after Agag. . . . A pastor, like John the Baptist, corrects Herod. A pastor shames the accusers and says to the adulteress, "Neither does Jesus condemn you . . . go and sin no more." A pastor rebukes the Pharisees and commends the importunate widow. Is the pastor called to be winsome, charming, and unoffensive? What is this gentle firmness? How does one balance out the 1 Th...

Controversies within Christianity carry on for various reasons, usually to test our maturity in faith, our love, our knowledge of the Word, and our wisdom in communication. The question of tongues and prophecy provide something of a division today. Knowledge of church history and the range of views within orthodoxy is critical. Also, one must clarify the terms. Sometimes we miss each other because...

When the media sics the sons of Belial on Christian pastors, what should they do? When taking on the attacks of the enemy—the death threats, the slander, the cancellations, etc.—how does the Christian react? The over-arching truth that needs to be welded into our minds and souls . . . is that God is in control. Keep Psalm 35 in mind. 

With a breakdown in faith and morality comes a quick and devastating breakdown of the economy. We have seen this happening in Europe. Over the past few years, nearly all the major nations in Europe have seen severe economic downturns. Interestingly enough, Europe's leaders, in general, are immoral and wicked.

This particular welfare program is for the educated—56% of the college debt is owed by 14% of Americans with master’s and PhD degrees. But the real reason for this spending binge is found in a New York Times Article: "College graduates are now a firmly Democratic bloc, and they are shaping the party's future." While the college bubble was bursting, the Democrats panicked. How best t...

Alex and Stephen Kendrick’s new film production “LifeMark” serves as a timely call upon the nation before the 2022 elections. Though met with resistance by Hollywood studios (not to mention principalities and powers), the powerful, inspiring film calls the world to choose life, to love life, to take adoption over abortion. Get the heart of the film in this interview, and then watch it on September...

Immodest dress in Sunday morning church service. Rowdy children during fellowship time. Sin issues. Conflict. Confrontation. How does a church navigate these matters? Are they leadership issues or matters that need to be worked out one-on-one between members? It takes faith and love NOT to confront. It takes faith and love to confront. It takes faith and love to forgive, and to seek forgiveness. I...

The East is on the rise. The West is on the decline. And, the dividing line is Ukraine and Russia, with Russia at least pretending to hold to "traditional" marriage. But the same thing is happening with the Nancy Pelosi-supported Taiwan vs. China that at least wants to pretend to hold to "traditional" marriage. Is war inevitable between the "traditionalist" East and t...

State subsidies. Pell grants. Title VII and Title IX. Bostock. College bubble. Accommodation laws. An 800-year infatuation with secular knowledge built up on human reason in the Christian college. It's a perfect storm for the elimination of the Christian college, especially for the 95%+ that are tied in to federal funding. Presidents of two colleges (Biola and Colorado Christian University) a...

Where is the heart of this country going into the 2022 elections? This will be the key moment in American elections after the Supremes washed their hands of the blood of the innocents and passed it on to the voters. While Democrats commit to a pro-abortion stance, will Republicans commit to a pro-life position or cling to hopes of "conservative" economics, whatever that means? This is st...

What happens to a nation that drops off its 3-year-old children at daycare? What happens to a nation that doubles the square footage of their homes, while cutting its birth rate in half? Mary Eberstadt is author of “Home Alone America.” In this interview, she reviews the hidden costs of daycare. Warning: This program is only for parents who love their children and will insist on the best for their...

The Church of England is incapable of defining a woman, but we are not only willing to define a woman, we are also able and willing to give the biblical ethical position on cannibalism. With the rise of cannibalism and other forms of insanity, we provide a sane Word to an insane world on this edition of the program.

1970s pop singer and movie star Olivia Newton-John has gone to meet her Maker at 73 years of age. The good-girl-goes-bad persona led a generation of young people the wrong way . . . whether that be the hit movie "Grease" or her hit song "Let's Get Physical." Things are 100 times worse today on the music scene, but these were more important revolutionary steps towards the c...

America's socio-political state has been relatively stable for 230+ years, but now we have taken concerted steps towards revolution. As one Senator put it, we have crossed the Rubicon with the present shenanigans at the highest echelons. But it could never happen here . . . or could it? We review the Killing Fields of Cambodia, the Nazi nightmare, and the Soviet experiment. What were the seed...

There is nothing more pitiful than a pauper pretending to be rich. There is nothing more deceitful than a political party always pretending to decrease tyranny, but instead increasing tyranny on the people—as in the case of the Republican Party. America still thinks she is rich and free, but she is extremely enslaved, poor, broken, bankrupted, wretched, and blind (spiritually and in every other wa...

Praise God for what He is doing with the homeschool movement around the world! The enemy of course is always pushing back on family freedoms and parental rights; the bad guy has control of just about every school system today. But there are parents around the world—and not just in America—who love their children, are willing to stand by faith, and say no to these systems. Michael Donnelly from HSL...

Some of the most challenging situations come up between grandparents and the parents concerning discipline issues with the kids. How do we handle different values and approaches in child training? And, what about older children living in the home who differ with their parents' standards? We handle a few questions from the listening audience on this edition of the program. 

Jordan Peterson issues one more sortie in an effort to save Western civilization, suggesting that young men go to church. The question still to grapple with is this . . . Does the system prevent young men from exercising innate strengths that could preserve human society? Or do the systems enable sin that is already latent within young men . . . and thereby further compound the problem? Interestin...

Christian socialist Ron Sider passed away over the weekend but his legacy remains. Between 30% and 50% of the evangelical population have been influenced by his thinking. We take a look at his argumentation that Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden's socialist efforts to "reduce poverty" would do a good job reducing abortion in America . . . whereas Donald Trump would not "substantial...

As what may have been the last best hope for America, Kansas voters go against life by a vote of 59% to 41%—a complete rout. The democratic voting base is rotten to the core, even in the heartland. The US Supreme Court may have repented, but not so the electorate. What would revival look like if the heart of the people and the church repented? 

The first business trip recorded in history found Judah traveling up to Timnath—and it did not turn out very well. Kevin Swanson talks about the anonymity of the city and the resulting hotel porn traps that ensnare so many businessmen.  Then we interview Theresa Bowen from A Candle in the Window Hospitality Network on a Christian ministry that actually promotes Christian fellowship around the worl...

Somebody won the $1.34 billion jackpot in the Mega Millions lottery, but check out the stories of those who live out Proverbs 18:20. Why would Charles Spurgeon, John MacArthur, and others consider gambling a sin? The Age of Greed has given birth to the worldwide economic disaster we are facing today. Here is how it happened.
