The social fallout coming by the rising divorce/marriage rate and illegitimacy rate is only now playing out, and will between 2020 and 2060. But, what about the pastors? Will the pastors be examples to the flock? Or do we see a capitulation on matters like sin, repentance, and the necessity of the fruit of righteousness in the lives of believers? What do these guys teach, and do ideas really have consequences in their lives? Jesus said, “By their fruits you shall know them.” Can we say this of the latest Hillsong debacle?

What’s up with David Stockman and Paul Craig Roberts. . .Reagan’s advisers from the 1980s? . . . Forecasting death camps, international economic bankruptcy, and the end of a 30-year experiment in Keynesian banking. Will cooler heads prevail? Or is this no time for cool heads? People are wondering whether Christians should flee the nation, or shall we stick around and learn to navigate the cancel culture in the Gramscian revolution? One thing we know for sure. . .God is dealing the cards, and the economic wild card could turn this whole thing on its head.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Christian Evangelicals supported Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party in the election of 1932 by a ratio of 8 to 1, as compared to Roman Catholics. Worst of all was the “Aryan paragraph” at the Evangelical Church’s annual synod meeting in 1933. How might the evangelical church today waffle on abortion, socialism, and Christian persecution today? While the Netherlands Protestant Church is finally apologizing for not taking a stand against the Nazi’s in 1939, we commend Corrie Ten Boom and Diet Eman for defending the Jews and paying the price for it.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The nanny state converges with the police state to produce a not so velvet-gloved totalitarianism. Bradley Pierce, attorney with Heritage Defense talks family freedoms, detention, forced vaccines, contact tracing, and family separation. What are the disincentives to refusing the vaccines?

James Bond is a true Western icon fifty years running. He may be the last of the icons. His is the longest-running movie franchise in the West—with the 25th episode coming out soon. Sean Connery was the first actor to play the part, and he has passed away. But the movie persona continues. James Bond became the essence of cool for billions over the last 50 years. But Christians simply could not endorse the sexually-promiscuous revenge killer. We analyze the worldview of the cool existentialism still wandering east of Eden.

Evangelical leaders like Max Lucado and Tony Evans are calling on Biden and Trump voters sitting in the same pews in the same churches to unite. They call for peace. But Jesus said He came not to bring peace, but a sword. What does this mean? And what is the basis of this unity? Must we support men who are committed to persecuting Christians and the funding of the slaughter of innocent babies? We distinguish between good forms and bad forms of ecumenicity.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The extenuating circumstances make this election the most incendiary since the Civil War. The vote comes the closest since post-civil war elections. If Maricopa county has turned as blue as 2016, and if Nevada is staying blue, the election is Biden’s. What will Christian expect with the Biden shift? We cover the Equality Act and the Hyde Amendment, and then seek God’s face for an island of freedom/culture in times of a rising persecution.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Will Joe Biden be the next president? The initial results point to Biden ahead, especially if he takes Nevada, which by county ratio appears to be the case. But the nation is sharply divided, right down the middle. It’s shaping up to be the closest election since Rutherford Hayes in 1876. The biggest takeaway from the election is the increasingly liberal bent for the whole country — even conservative states Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Kansas, and Nebraska. The states moving liberal fastest are Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Washington State, Oregon, and Minnesota. The biggest contributor has been the white college educated crowd, the major victims of the zeitgeist for 20 years running.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The worldwide entertainment industry has increased from $40 billion to $830 billion since 1970. But the big increases are going to be found in gambling, computer gaming, and porn. Why? Because companies take advantage of the most addictive forms of “entertaining themselves to death.” It was the first time in history in which technology and complex computer algothrims were used to purposefully create addictions. We explain how computer gaming is designed to maximize the possibility of addiction with your kids.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

On strictly GDP, the West fell in 2015. Forty years ago, the West controlled 100% of the 7 largest economies in the world. . . .now only 31%. Power has shifted east. Why the fear of COVID? Why the purposeful shutting down of economies, again? A great humbling is in the offing. The most devastating fall is still ahead of us. Are we ready?

Pastor John Piper isn’t voting for Donald Trump or Joe Biden for that matter, this election. But King Mannasseh repented. Can we say the same for Donald Trump? Is it appropriate to equate the sins of Joe Biden to the sins of Donald Trump when it comes to their political and personal lives? The principle remains the principle. Is there any fear of God here or there? New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Halloween has turned into a revival of the ancient Day of the Dead. Should Christians celebrate Halloween? What about All Saints Eve or “Reformation Day”? Or what about birthdays? Should Christians keep trees in their homes? Should they hang a pentagram in the living room? How much liberty is allowed the family jurisdiction, and where does the church go too far? Should the church celebrate Christmas or require the celebration of Christmas for others? These questions are taken up by thoughtful Christian families, and it is critical that we have consistently biblical answers, especially for our young adult children.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Written and directed by acclaimed filmmaker and author Dinesh D’Souza, TRUMP CARD is an exposé of the socialism, corruption and gangsterization that now defines the Democratic Party. Whether it is the creeping socialism of Joe Biden or the overt socialism of Bernie Sanders, the film reveals what is unique about modern socialism, who is behind it, why it’s evil, and how we can work together with President Trump to stop it. In this guest interview conducted by Adam McManus of Dinesh D’Souza, they discuss the key themes of the TRUMP CARD movie including identity politics, abortion, Hollywood, and the media. They also address religious freedom, the Deep State, socialism’s connection with radical Islam, as well as the socialism of Norway, Sweden, Cuba, and Venezuela.

These are extraordinary times for the Catholic Church and the Protestant Church, and the evangelical colleges. It is the death of the West. It is the death of the old institutionalized faith in the West, with the exception of a small remnant. The Pope has finally endorsed homosexual “families” and “civil unions.” The Council on Christian Colleges and Universities has endorsed persecution of Christians, while embracing homosexuality and a polytheistic, pluralist view of ethics. But the greatest horror of it all . . . is the lack of horror among the Christians left.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Let’s not get our eye off the real issue, as we approach the elections. Rod Dreher insists the real problem is not politics. We’ve lost the culture. The cultural pressure is strong to... lie. But, here’s the exhortation . . . Live not by lies. What are the lies we have to push against in the Gramscian culture today? The soft totalitarianism of the day is about to add forced vaccines. How will we navigate these new requirements in the rising 1984’ish state?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Coming into this next election, 61% of Americans are concerned about a second civil war. Americans are buying at a rate of 24,000,000 guns a year, up from 6,000,000 guns per year back in the early 2000s. Since many Christians are jumping on this band wagon, we need to ask the important question... What are the biblical standards for use of fire arms, if we were to draw from Nehemiah 4:14, 1 Samuel 26:9, and Exodus 22:2? To answer Eric Clapton’s question, you cannot shoot the sheriff or the deputy.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The President of the United States acknowledged Jesus Christ as Lord, or in His words, “the Boss” in a speech he gave on Friday. Trump recognized Jesus Christ as far above principalities and powers (including himself.) Has God shown mercy to Trump, as he did to King Mannesseh? And would you show mercy? We also take a look at President Obama’s acknowledgement of the Lord Jesus Christ, and Rush Limbaugh’s recent testimony. Why is Jesus far less controversial today than He was in the 19th century?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

While the Christian position is increasingly marginalized, is it still possible for Christians to be involved in politics and win elections? Kevin Swanson talks to Mike Winther, President of Institute for Principle Studies on the basic, bottom line, biblical principles of government. What is the purpose of civil government, and how might we begin to build back a biblical framework?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Oreo cookies have turned homosexual on us, so does this mean we should boycott Oreo Cookies now? We touch on the issue of food offered to idols. Some are concerned about food shortages, but what is the real issue now? Farm production is up this year in the United States and around the world, but unemployment is the greater concern. What is a decent view of prepping in relation to food, federal reserve notes, church relationships, and caring for widows?

Netherlands was the first apostate nation, and the most apostate nation in the Western world, giving in to Nero’s agenda as early as 2003. Now, Calvin College ranks as one of the most homosexual-friendly colleges, complete with a bi-sexual student body president. Dordt follows closely behind. Why are these colleges so extremely dangerous, much more dangerous than sending your children to a secular college? Does the Bible speak plainly towards these sins? Does the Bible also approve of every form of genocide and slavery? We take up the common atheist arguments against Christianity, taken up by speakers at Dordt College.

The age is increasingly characterized by a curious combination of skepticism and a suspension of credulity. It is the day of social chaos. Let’s suppose for a moment that LBJ really hired Lee Harvey Oswald to knock out JFK, Trump and/or Obama organized a sex ring, Denver International Airport is the headquarters of the New World Order, The Rockefellers and that other guy brought Covid 19 to the world, and George W. Bush knew all about 9/11 before it happened. So what? We examine the worldview of conspiracies, and then, we outline how Christians are to think about Q-Anon, Big Foot, the Loch Ness Monster, and Pizzagate.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

What is the truth about Trump? Is it time for the Never-Trumpers and the Jonahs to repent and place a vote for Donald Trump in 2016? Here is a candid discussion on Donald Trump and the 2020 elections. Cutting to the chase, what is the most basic concern every Christians should consider before placing a vote for Donald Trump? Even the liberals have to admit that something has changed about Donald Trump since 2016, and it ties into the way he references God.

Right now in the West, we see those who used to carry some semblance of a Biblical worldview turning more and more to humanism and paganism, both of which have a common enemy: the true God. Now, there is a growing interest in Wiccan and pagan practices on college campuses amongst millenials. We discuss these and the pagan practices found throughout our nation's history on this edition of the program.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Nothing will test your faith more than the loss of a loved one, especially the loss of a spouse or a child. Shari McMinn has suffered through both of these losses and her faith shines in this interview with Kevin Swanson. Shari’s new book “Death, Where is Your Sting?” will help you to prepare for your own death someday, as well as comfort those who are walking through the valley of the shadow of death right now. What are the stages of grief? How do you help grieving children? How do you comfort a friend who has lost a spouse?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Almost half of Christians say the Bible is ambiguous on its teaching on abortion. Why didn’t Jesus speak on abortion or homosexuality? Was He pro-LGBT and pro-abortion? The Old Testament law is important to establish a biblical standard of ethics on abortion. But, some use Old Testament law unlawfully. They do not handle the law in the right way. How would we handle the law as Jesus did, or as the Apostles did in Acts 15 and Matthew 15?

For the transgression of the people many are the princes thereof. As we approach the 2020 elections, will God assign more tyranny to this nation? Will we suffer the same as other Christians under tyrannical conditions elsewhere in the world? America has become more immoral over the last 15 years. Do we deserve God’s mercy now? Or do we deserve tyranny? We conclude that the best solution to the nation is the Gospel, faith in Christ, and real repentance.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Is America on a repenting trend, such that the nation would strike a new path to repentance? Or is this Jehoahaz following up on King Josiah’s reign? What would a Biden presidency look like?

The US Supreme Court is not doing Christians any favors when it comes to religious persecution. Will pastors be next in line for rejecting the party line on homosexual “mirage?” Kudos for President Trump on his nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the high court, but what does this mean for the nation?

The Christian faith is losing ground in the west, with each successive generation flaking out at greater frequencies. The church appears powerless to stop the bleeding.

Global Warming. 9/11 and Terrorism. Covid 19. There are just so many pretenses for the development of the regulative state and the police state. Does wearing a mask invite more police state restrictions upon the nation? If liberty is still a value, where do you push back, and what is the best way to do it? Do you address the problem with Walmart, or would it be more prudent to address your concerns with the courts, the legislatures, and the executive arm of government?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Wow. Wow. Wow. The new documentary “The Social Dilemma” is rocking the world. Why the dystopian negativity from this new documentary film on social media and its destructive effects? Is this really unravelling all of human society? Is this creating an excessively high level of social chaos, polarization, and anarchy? What are the more fundamental issues we need to be considering here?

Only 2% of American millennials subscribe to the very basic elements of a Christian worldview, yet 61% still claim to be Christians. Does this mean that 97% of American professing Christians actually subscribe to a different religion — the religion of humanism? Is it time for a new church council so as to discern the difference between the false religion and the true faith within evangelicalism today? We provide a suggestion for initial language for a new ecumenical statement for the 21st century church, to follow up on the Councils of Nicea and Chalcedon.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The modern church and the whole world is pretty strong on age-segregated programs, but what does the Bible recommend in the pastoral epistles? Has human traditions displaced the laws of God, when it comes to family and church life? What if children were not discipled by secular education, and families took their Ephesians 6:4 responsibilities seriously? Here is a modest proposal for the abandonment of youth ministry, and invitation for the Holy Spirit — that the hearts of the fathers turn to the children, and the hearts of children turn back to the fathers.

The last reformation was in the West. Will the next reformation be worldwide in scope? Despite a pessimistic theology that took root in America during the 19th century, the 19th and 20th centuries saw the greatest impact for the Kingdom worldwide in 2000 years. This program includes a big vision, but at the end of the day the discipleship of any nation begins at home with Dad.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Enemy Awards or rather Emmy Awards 2020 came and went, offering top prizes for television programs which glorified orgies, drugs, rape, etc. etc. We’ve come a long ways from “Father Knows Best” and “Huckleberry Hound” — winning top awards in 1960. What does it look like when the world passes away with its lusts thereof? The hardly ever watched Emmy awards would be an excellent example of the pattern. But as a Christian does not love the world, what does he love? What is the good love to replace the rotting lust of the world, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Social Security fund was supposed to deplete in 2045, then 2035, then 2032, and now 2031. Some Americans have the opportunity to exempt themselves from social security, but would they do it if they had the chance? Less than 20% of pastors (in one survey) have opted out of social security. Will churches prepare to reassume responsibilities they have abdicated to the state? New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Are the American Country Music awards bringing a tremendous Christian reformation to America? Carrie Underwood gives “all glory to God,” and Rhett acknowledges “my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.” However, don't forget this is the genre where the guy “gets laid and saved” in the same song, and Carrie Underwood continues her “Love Wins” tour, hammering on people who love the real Jesus and keep His commandments. The bifurcation of faith and life, or Sunday and Monday, creates a syncretism not unlike what Jeroboam introduced when he made nice little cow idols for Jehovah worship.

This is a time of great testing for Republicans, for President Trump, and for pastors like Tim Keller. The divisions are occurring across the nation, but will the divisions be set according to God’s Law — God’s definition of right and wrong, or arbitrary definitions and emphases? The next appointment of a US Supreme Court Justice is a major test for the President. Will this be another Justice Thomas, or another Justice Gorsuch or Sandra Day O’Connor?

Should Christians take advantage of welfare programs, or should they use tax breaks, when the system is filled with inequity? How does a Christian get along in a system shot through with stealing, cheating, preferential treatments, etc.? These are not always easily answered questions. Kevin and Bill present the principles, but challenge families to make principled choices in their own varied situations.

Young children are increasingly being sexualized by films like Frozen, Cuties, etc., but what is the real sin of it? Does the Bible really condemn pre-marital sexuality? What is the focal point we present for our daughters, when it comes to presentation? The world trains women in the Proverbs 5 and Proverbs 7 mode, but our focus is Godward, not man-ward or self-ward.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

While Christians were allowing for easy divorce and adultery, and still opposing homosexuality, they were grossly inconsistent and hypocritical. However, Christian leaders are now moving towards approving both, lending to more consistency in their apostasy.

The false doctrines of racism and racial justice is dividing the church and Barna’s survey is not helping the situation. But, if the church would hold to the commandments of God, the confusion and disagreements would largely disappear.

Instead of looking to governments to change the hearts of men, would Christians rely more upon the power of the Gospel?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Ligonier Ministries teamed up with LifeWay Research for the biennial “State of Theology” survey to examine the differences between everyday Americans and Evangelicals on their beliefs about God, truth, the Bible, and ethical issues. They spoke to a representative sample of 3,000 people. Guest host Adam McManus interviews Dr. Stephen Nichols, the President of Reformation Bible College and the Chief Academic Officer for Ligonier Ministries, as they examined statements like: “God accepts the worship of all religions including Christianity, Judaism, and Islam”, “Jesus was a great teacher, but He was not God”, “Everyone sins a little, but most people are good by nature”, “Modern science disproves the Bible”, “Christians should be silent on issues of politics”, and “The Bible is the highest authority for what I believe.” Respondents indicated whether they strongly agree, somewhat agree, are not sure, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree. Look at the key findings and at the 35 statements as a family and examine the Scriptures connected with each. The results reveal that Evangelicals desperately need to study God’s Word.

On September 9 th , Netflix released a disturbing French film entitled “Cuties.” According to its original synopsis, Netflix said, “Amy, 11, became fascinated with a twerking dance crew. Hoping to join them, she starts to explore her femininity, defying her family’s traditions.” CitizenGo rightly reminds concerned citizens that in the last year alone, Netflix glorified blasphemy through “The First Temptation of Christ” and sexual violence through “365 Days.” Now, they’ve reached a new low by sexualizing 11-year-old girls. One Christian leader said, “Every adult involved in the production, marketing, and distribution of this film should be registered as a sex offender.” Guest host Adam McManus interviews Linda Harvey, Founder of MissionAmerica.com, who urges Christians to immediately drop their subscriptions to Netflix. Based on Ephesians 5:11, McManus asks you to urge your state’s Attorney General to prosecute Netflix for obscenity involving minors, to sign the Citizen Go petition to Netflix with 220,000 signatures now, and to protect your own children from exposure to the world’s dangerous messages.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Guest host Adam McManus talks with Patti Garibay, the founder of American Heritage Girls, a Christian version of the Girl Scouts. In this second installment of two conversations, Patti, a Girl Scouts parent volunteer, shares her outrage with the group for making the pledge to God optional, for advocating moral relativism, and for championing a disturbing weekend called “Sexuality & You” for 12 to 14-year- olds which celebrated gender confusion and sexual perversion antithetical to God’s design. She empathized with Habakkuk, the prophet, who cried out, “How long, O Lord, must I call for help? But You do not listen! Must I forever see these evil deeds? Why must I watch all this misery?” (Habakkuk 1:2-3) After trying to reform the Girl Scouts from within, she felt God calling her to found American Heritage Girls, a Christ-centered adventure program for girls (5-18) whose troops are hosted in 1,200 churches and have 56,000 members nationwide.

Guest host Adam McManus talks with Patti Garibay, the founder of American Heritage Girls, a Christian version of the Girl Scouts. In this first installment of two conversations with Patti, she shares her story of having grown up in a home where her father contracted the debilitating disease called Multiple Sclerosis and her mother became a hardened alcoholic. When she began dating her future husband, she became pregnant out of wedlock at 19. Patti shares the dramatic story about her visit to Planned Parenthood. And, ultimately, both Patti and her husband, Pat, trusted Jesus Christ as their Savior. It’s all chronicled in her book Why Curse the Darkness When You Can Light a Candle?

Guest host Adam McManus interviews Brandi Swindell, the Founder of the life-affirming Stanton Healthcare clinics in Boise, Idaho, Detroit, Michigan, Pasadena, California and Belfast, Northern Ireland, about her call for the Smithsonian to remove the bust of Margaret Sanger from the National Portrait Gallery. Sanger founded Planned Parenthood with the expressed purpose of killing children of color whom she deemed to be “human weeds” and a “menace to the race”. Her eugenics worldview was conceived by evolutionist Charles Darwin and implemented through Hitler’s “Final Solution.” Sanger’s U.S. “Abortion Solution” has killed 62 million pre-born babies compared to Hitler’s 15 million victims. While Blacks only comprise 13 percent of the U.S. population, they have nearly 40 percent of all abortions. That’s why GOP Congressman Russ Fulcher of Idaho sent a letter to Lonnie Bunch, the Director of the Smithsonian, urging him to remove the Sanger bust.
