The Generations Radio Program

What is laziness? Is it a sin? What are the outward manifestations of laziness sprouting within a child’s life? What is a Biblical view of work, rest, and recreation, and how can we as parents disciple our children through their (and our own) struggles with laziness? Kevin Swanson, Bill Roach, and Daniel Craig discuss these and other questions about the subject of laziness on this edition of the p...

What is the best thing governments can do to improve economies? Five words: Get. Out. Of. The. Way. And, what is the best way to stay out of wars and avoid the slaughter of a billion people? Free trade and sports. But, what does the Bible say about things like tariffs? What does history say about it?

In this segment of “What Does the Bible Say About That?”, Kevin and Josh Schwisow discuss several questions sent in by Generations listeners. How can wives encourage their husbands to be involved in the spiritual life of the family? What should be the focus when discussing modest dress? Is it more than just externals?

We live in a sterile and de-relationalized world. A large number of Gen Z’ers are on psychotropic drugs and are longing for relationships, but the modern church isn't putting relationships as a priority. As Christians, we need to follow Jesus' example of building and fostering relationships.

We live in an age of brokenness—that's the baseline for most families in our day. But all of us are broken, by nature—it’s just that the disease has broken out into gaping sores and we can see it now. But what now? How does one face the brokenness? First, admit the problem . . . all of them. Then, Psalm 51. 

The age of buttercups is over. As Politico puts it, Trump is a force of history, and Putin, Jinping, and Trump are all strong men, and they recognize each other to be such. We discuss the value and risk of strength and strong men. How do the Scriptures speak of strength as a virtue? Are we moving towards the age of Hitler, Stalin . . . and Churchill?

The battle for honest money went on for over a hundred years in American history, but the cause was lost in 1913. How did this happen, and what are the biblical standards for honest money? Andy Keusel, producer of a video course on Biblical money, joins us on this edition of the program. These are the basics that every Christian family and all of our children need to understand if we will ever res...

Crypto investors, companies, and executives accounted for half of all corporate donations in the 2024 election cycle. And Trump Crypto did 18,000 percent out of the gate—with a current capitalization of $7 billion. However, the number of crypto investors is shrinking now, year by year. That’s not going to do well for this $4 trillion game, where it’s all about who gets out the game first with the...

Bill Roach, Kevin Swanson, and Danny Craig come back to discuss the importance of discipleship in the home, considering the special role that dads have when it comes to the raising of children. Is it enough to simply cut out movies and video games? What are some healthy replacements for media? How important is accountability when it comes to the internet? When should dads start to have discussions...

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...

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’...

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 wive...

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 th...

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 b...

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...

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 honorin...

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 a...

Somebody’s lying. The Federal Reserve and the Keynesian economists play the shell game with the people, and it is an outright violation of the 8th and 9th commandments. Though their speech is charming, do not believe them, for seven abominations fill their hearts. Here is one more attempt to uncover the most massive heist of all time—and it’s the widows and retirees that are hit the hardest. 

Hollywood and the big film industry lost another 3.9 percent year over year, down 47 percent over 2002. And the Golden Globes throws away its awards to two trash films that nobody watched. Hollywood is passing away with the lust thereof . . . the stars are tarnished. This is going down. Will Christians go down with it? 

The most urgent issue in the news must be the leading cause of death in the world—killing 175 million people a year, as compared with 8.2 million people who died of cancer, 5 million of cancer, 1.7 million of HIV/AIDS, and 1.35 million from traffic fatalities. Even Christians pass it off, and don’t pay much attention to it. But, God cares. 

The millennial generation’s regular church attendance rate is 18 percent, down from 55 percent with the Silent Generation. We caught up with Josh McDowell, the youth guru, and we're asking him the million-dollar questions. What will salvage the millennial generation? What's the message? How to compete with the electronic revolution? If you've heard about the debate on presupposition...

What does the Bible say about immigration, nationalism, and borders? Is there a point at which the salad bowl of multiculturalism turns into a time bomb? What happens when a nation jettisons its Christian common denominator? Dr. Phil Kayser joins me to talk through these important issues that touch quite a few nations in our present day.

Christians too often delve into the culture. They kowtow to it, and fall down into it, and further pollute the spring. In the name of Christian liberty, almost everything is permitted, but what was it that Romans 14 was talking about? Shall we encourage more or less interaction with pop culture, and at what point are you stepping over the line and having communion with the unfruitful works of dark...
