The Generations Radio Program

Our Lord Jesus Christ wasn’t wild at heart. He wasn’t a macho man. He wasn’t a metrosexual, milque-toasty, or escaping and absent. We explore biblical masculinity on this program — the desperate need of every home and church with David Murray with ChristianManAcademy.com.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

This program reviews some of the history of recent box office favorites like X-men and Deadpool. Should Christians be watching these movies? And what about Gospel albums that include profanity and blasphemies? Cultural offerings like this force us to discern between good and evil according to the mind of God, and the law of God as revealed in Scripture. Are Christians considering these things? Where is the line of demarcation between the world and Christ? New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The public schools have more woes than we can count on this edition of the program. Muslim male students don’t have to shake hands with female teachers any more in Swiss public schools. Also, a 4-year-old was kicked out of a Colorado preschool for refusing to participate in pro-homosexual ideologies. Meanwhile, San Francisco junior high schools are allowing kids to opt out of a full week of homosexuality indoctrination. But, will they allow Christians to preach the Gospel in the public schools? That’s what we want to know. We also offer a solution to the knotty problem of multiculturalism that cannot be solved by sheer government will power. . . eliminate the public schools altogether.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Guest host Adam McManus interviews U.S. Army Lt. Col. Kevin Bouren, an avid listener of Generations Radio, who organized a Manhood Celebration for his 13-year-old son Brady last December. Based upon 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 which says, “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.”, Kevin invited 21 Christian men to come in from 9 states to share their Biblical counsel, write a letter, and give a symbolic gift about manhood which Brady will treasure for years to come. Kevin’s thinking about how to raise a boy into a God-honoring Christian man, qualified to be an elder according to 1 Timothy and Titus, was profoundly influenced by three key books. 1. A Father’s Reward: Raising Your Children to Walk in the Truth by Phil Downer. 2. Raising a Modern-Day Knight: A Father’s Role in Guiding His Son to Authentic Manhood by Robert Lewis. 3. Stepping Up: A Call to Courageous Manhood by Dennis Rainey. In fact, Kevin strongly recommends the 10-week Stepping Up Video series which he hosted for fathers and their young sons. One author wrote, “Today’s boys rarely, if ever, learn from the adults closest to them what it means to become a man – or learn when they become one. Instead they are left to search for answers in movies, song lyrics, the often ill-informed perspectives of their peers, and the mixed, even contradictory, messages from other ‘grown-ups’ around them. I believe this leaves many boys confused, hurting, and feeling terribly incomplete.” In many cultures, there is a rite of passage for young men from the Masai Tribe in Kenya Africa at 15 to the Lakota Indians at 12 to the Jews who celebrate with their bar mitzvah at 13. But what do Christians do? The Manhood Celebration concluded with the knighting ceremony as Brady recited what a R.E.A.L. man is, as captured by Robert Lewis. A real man Rejects passivity, Expects a greater reward, Accepts responsibility and Leads courageously. Kevin blessed Brady, saying, “Brady, you are my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.” Then, he asked him 2 questions. “Brady, will you commit, from this day forward, that you will, with the Spirit’s help, love God and love others?” His son said, “I do.” “Brady, will you commit, from this day forward, that you will, with the Spirit’s help, reject passivity, expect God’s greater reward, accept responsibility and lead courageously?” His son said, “I do.” Kevin said, “By the authority God has vested in me as your father, it is my honor to dub you this day.” (placingNew kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Guest host Adam McManus interviews Elizabeth Johnston, also known as The Activist Mommy, about the upcoming "Day of Mourning" in response to the passage of New York’s new extreme abortion law which allows mothers to kill their babies right up until the birth itself. To celebrate this unbelievable depravity, Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered the One World Trade Center to be lit in pink lights because he thought mothers would be delighted! The mother of 10 children, Elizabeth daily triggers the left by confronting the lies of abortion, feminism, Islam, and the homosexual agenda. Her viral commentary videos have netted over 70 million views. And her new book is entitled "Not on My Watch: How to Win the Fight for Family, Faith, and Freedom."

Multi-culturalism, relativism, and homosexuality are some of the many forms of bondage being propagated through the world's systems today. Christ came to set us free from bondage like this. However, many are willingly sacrificing themselves and their children to them through the public schools and other forms of discipleship. Who is discipling your children? Are we willing to sacrifice for the sake of our children's souls? Steve Vaughan and Bill Jack discuss these issues on this edition of the program.

Evil very seldom presents itself in the form of a forked tail and pitchfork; instead, it is usually wrapped in charm, nice personalities, or empty verbal professions. This is becoming especially true in today's culture. thus, it is vitally important to discern when there's danger and expose the evil behind such motives or words. How can we help our children do this? Steve Vaughan and Bill Jack address this question and discuss the importance of having our children trained by Christ and conformed to His image.

Guest host Adam McManus talks with Producer, Writer, and Director Rich Christiano about his latest Christian film entitled Play the Flute.

Fifty percent of Americans switch religions/denominations before they turn fifty. Kevin Swanson takes a look at a Wall Street Journal article of a Baptist family whose sons turn Anglican and Roman Catholic. And, everybody's quite happy about it. Is choosing a denomination about the same as choosing Mint Chip or Rocky Road at the Baskin Robbins' counter? Are people turning to a "traditionalism" for the same reason they're hanging out with Rob Bell? Here we discuss the post modern game of musical chairs and changing churches. This program contains: 1.

The few Mennonites in Quebec are fast losing religious liberty, especially when it comes to raising their children in the fear of God. We take a look at the strengths of Mennonites and the tensions between involvement in politics and disengagement, cultural transformation and cultural avoidance or escape.

Does your daughter know the derivative of a cosine? Does she know how the pinocytic vesicle functions in the Amoeba? Does she know who Rome fought in the Punic was? Can she parse just about any Latin verb? And, does she know how to integrate knowledge into life? Most educated children have no idea how to solve problems, how to manage households, how to engage life and contribute to an economy. That is because most education sadly lacks the life integrative element. We provide some practical guidelines here for incorporating the life integration element in your children’s education.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Are young men looking for debt-free virgins without tattoos to marry? Or do they prefer college educated women who will work for a living and take birth control, so that the young men can keep playing video games? We look at two different articles that take a different angle at this question. Would it be better to marry a repentant prostitute who is at the feet of Christ washing His feet with her tears, over against some homeschooled girl who is a debt-free virgin without a tattoo, but unconverted? We discuss the consequences of sin, the problem of debt, the question of college for our daughters, but land on the Gospel as the most important message for our day.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

States are mandating comprehensive sex education in perversions for all charter schools and government-funded homeschool programs. When homeschooling parents take the government dollars they subject their children to these mandates.It’s time to realize that what Caesar funds, Caesar will control. About 92% of evangelical kids are still in public schools, while 9 states mandate pro-homosexual teaching for 5-18 year old kids. At what point should Christian churches excommunicate parents who willfully submit their children to transgender and homosexual indoctrination? Are there real Christian churches that are concerned about the little lambs in their congregations, and what should godly pastors do? Finally, some Christians are realizing that education is not neutral, and it is time to insist on a distinctively Christian education and discipleship for our children.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Lady Gaga and Ocascio-Cortez see themselves as good Christians, better Christians than Vice President Mike Pence. Increasingly, media and political debates are centering around who is the "better Christian" — the tolerant ones or the intolerant ones of stuff like killing children and homosexual perversions. We interact with Lady Gaga’s Facebook post with Becky Roach. But, the real question we grapple with is this: "Are true Christians against abortion and homosexuality?" Or is that another superficial, practically meaningless reduction? New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Virginia’s Governor Ralph Northam lost his political support from his own party, because somebody put the wrong picture, a bad picture, on his yearbook page in 1986. Never mind his support of infanticidal negligence. Never mind his failure to fear God. But, what brings these leaders down? What is the more fundamental problem? Meantime, the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities explain why they would persecute Christian businesses by their support of homosexuality. But, the more fundamental problem was a failure to fear God.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Where materialistic evolution most trips and falls on its face is when it confronts the origins of man and the ontology of man. What is man? How is he different from the other sentient life? How did he come to be so different? What is this sense of righteousness and morality about him? Dr. Edgar Andrews engages this topic with more thoughtfulness and down-to-earth argumentation than anything you’ve ever heard before. Richard Dawkins called Dr. Andrews a “wing nut,” but what is the more rational approach to understanding the rational mind and person of man? After listening to this, you will conclude that it is materialistic evolutionary theories that fail to interact with the data rationally.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

While empires fall and the department heads of education are sputtering about how wonderful transgenderism would be taught in Christian schools and Sunday Schools, Christians must commit themselves to a more optimistic education for their kids. This is a clarion call for an optimistic education in a pessimistic age. We don’t want our kids committing suicide and participating in the massive drug abuse and transgender culture. But, what is this education that Jesus wants for our children? Why is Jesus' kingdom more impressive than Napoleon’s or the American empire which is fading away?

It turns out liberal arts professors in top 51 liberal arts colleges in America are. . . LIBERAL! The ratio of Republicans to Democrats is 49 to 1!! Were we sending our kids there to be sure that the next generation of pastors, political leaders, and academic teachers/professors in Christian colleges will be twice as liberal as the last batch? J.D. Grear and Matt Chandler are talking Class Privilege, and there is a great deal of debate over Tim Keller’s social justice theories, and appreciation for Marxists. We carefully analyze Mr. Keller’s actually quotes, and compare with Scripture. New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

We try to figure out why college-aged kids are leaving church by the droves - 70% of them. And most of them leave church "unintentionally." That means most kids are attending church unintentionally! Families attend church like they drop in on Taco Bell. However, what they fail to understand is the church is not Taco Bell. The Church is not an event. It is the body of the living Christ. And to join the body of Christ is an all-or-nothing proposition.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Why is the abortion rate for Catholics higher than the rest of the country, while the Protestant rates are lower? A Catholic Governor signs the worst abortion law in the nation, but why won’t the Catholics excommunicate him? Where is the courage of Ambrose who stood down Emperor Theodosius after his bloody purge at Thessalonica? We draw in some important history to remind our listeners that there has been some fear of God among Christian leaders in past centuries.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Modern society has lost its humanity and its identity. The insanity is thorough-going partially because the medium is the message. Gender confusion is a symptom of more fundamental brokenness, as Dr. Alistair Roberts shares on this program. How will the church restore humanity and community in this dystopian age?

The “Brave New World” continues living out the horror of godless science, with surrogacy on the rise. The manufacture of orphans, the depersonalization of the fetus, the hiring of wombs, the selling of children, the encouragement of child drag queens, all add up to the victimization of children. Christians should at the very least wake up to the abominations practiced by the world, realize the severe violations of God’s law going on with IVF and Surrogacy, and avoid participation in godless science.

Vice President Mike Pence defends a small Christian school in Virginia, after it receives searing attacks for refusing to embrace the homosexual vision for the world. Sadly, Christian education is on the decline in America. . .making up smaller and smaller segments of American K-12 education. Genuine Christians however will demand Christian education for their children in the vein of Deuteronomy 6. Christian education is not just the hope for the future of America, it is the hope for the continuity of the Christian faith itself for future generations.

Teen popular culture now has shifted into almost 100% Satanism, homosexuality, and suicide. While Christian parents want to protect their children from these ungodly influences, they can’t protect their kids from their own hearts.

We arrive on Day 34 in the longest government shutdown in history. This brings up a discussion on the purpose of government. Is government intended to regulate every part of life? Does government fix problems? What is the role for government as assigned by God? The most important lesson for all of us is that government doesn’t change the world. Jesus changes the world. Jesus Christ has come to save us from our problems. That’s not the government’s job.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

It’s a low time in American Christianity, but are we doing better than we were in the 1970s? Many are seeking revival but what does that mean? Rearranging the furniture, trying a whole new set of programs, introducing a new worship band, or reverting to house churching. . .none of that will work, without the power of God opening the hearts of the people and bringing about real conversions. We interview two of the leading pastors in America — one Presbyterian and the other Baptist. We ask a simple question, “How does the church reform in the 21st century?” New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

College campuses and most of culture is now swimming in victimhood, and the snowflakes are screaming “micro-aggression,” especially if any dare to question victim culture. This creates much dissension and disunity, a destabilization of human society. We contrast victim culture against honor culture, dignity culture, and. . . humble culture. Modern culture is soaking in pride, self-esteem, and zero fear of God. The result of course, is catastrophic. David said, “Against thee oh God, and thee only I have sinned. . .” Of course, David sinned against Bathsheba. But far more important than this. . . David sinned against God. This changes the whole perspective for all of us, when we bring God into center. New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Video games sales have reached $85 billion, and that’s 4X the total toy market. Does real joy entail entertaining ourselves to death? Real rejoicing happens in community and in the face of God.

The liberal news media points to the collapse of Bill Gothard, the firing of Paige Patterson, and the shrinkage of Bob Jones University as an indication that authoritarianism and fundamentalism is about gone in America. But what is this authoritarianism and fundamentalism? There was a cheap knock-off form of fundamentalism that is collapsing, but is there something that still remains. Here is a discussion on the breakdown of a conservative strain of Christianity that wasn’t authentic enough.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The American Psychological Association has concluded that traditional masculinity is toxic to the nation. Competitiveness, male aggression, achievement, and risk are seen as threatening and toxic to the present social milieu. Do we really like "traditional" masculinity if that means able machismo and a tendency to want to commit sexual sin? What is true biblical masculinity? This is the crying need of the day — godly men, mature men, and men who are ready to lead in the family. We recommend this program for young men especially.

Church attendance in England dropped off to 1.2%. Church attendance in America has been dropping now for ten years. Will the church ever reform in America as long as the pastors tolerate secular, public education? In a secular, post-Christian age, is it possible that we might be on the cusp of another sweeping revival or reformation? This is the burden of pastors like Dr. George Grant and Mark Robinette — here is a crying need for reformation as felt by the leading pastors in America.

Should Christians compost their bodies? Should they cremate their relatives and tattoo their bodies? What would post-Christian Christians do in a post-Christian world? We take up the controversial topic of cremation, starting with what the Bible says about cremation, and defining Christian culture. Christians would live out their worldview of resurrection. If they REALLY believed in the resurrection of the body, what would they do with the body? That’s the $100,000 question of the day.

We review the two developments going on in films and popular culture, focusing on the escapism in sci-fi and fantasy films. The Golden Globes lead the way on mainstreaming Leviticus 18 perversions.

The college bubble has burst, or at least it is deflating fast. Enrollment has dropped by 1 million students in six years. . . that’s like 100 major colleges going out of business. The secular college is consuming itself when it denies the beginning of knowledge as the fear of God. It has undermined its own foundations, chopped off its own legs, and burned all of its capital. The college girl to boy ratio is rising 0.5% every 6 years. . .now 56.5% - 43.5%. Men are playing games, the women are working. . . and the kids are being transgendered in the preschools. Colleges represent the wrong educational method, the wrong worldview, the wrong social view, but can Christians still get something out of it?

The younger generation in America today is quite a bit poorer than the young generation was in 1989 . . . by 70%! The fact is that the character of the nation has fallen off the cliff and is careening downwards fast. Put away your red MAGA hat. Forget the wall. America needs to rebuild her foundations. We provide several basic foundational lessons for rebuilding the foundations of character in family and nation. It begins with the Gospel for every generation, because every generation has a problem.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

It should go without saying that the church in America is in bad need of reviving. The spiritual needs run deep. Evangelicalism is in crisis. Now pastors in America are rising up and calling for reform, and praying for reviving. Now, as the nation faces what appears to be more division and turmoil (and what appears to be a serious decline in Christian worldview thinking among evangelical and others), we ask a question of leading pastors in America. “What is the greatest need for the evangelical church in America, and how would you pray for revival or reformation?"

Pastors in America still have an opt-out for the social security program. Social security is not an annuity. It is not insurance. But, is social security a welfare program?

Something is wrong with American children. Some 32 million children have chronic illnesses, and a ground breaking new study of 600+ homeschooled children finds multiple links to immunizations.

The Urbana 2018 Student Conference is concerned about a “tainted Gospel” where Christians commit sins like patriarchy and environmental racism, and they play monopoly to boot (which is not Jesus). Instead of disciple-ing the nations, what are these college ministries doing? They confuse the issues, they refuse to define sin by the commandments of God (which is what Jesus told us to teach the nations). Should your children play monopoly? Or, should we support these college ministries, or go for family discipleship and local church-based discipleship?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Why do Presidents Obama, Clinton, and Carter confess Christ, but so far there hasn’t been a public confession from President Trump? Only President Donald Trump neglected to recite the Apostle’s Creed at President George H.W. Bush’s funeral. We go over the public testimonials of faith in Christ from the presidents. Then we study the basic faith of the Apostle’s Creed, and how the idea of "sin" and "judgment" and "creation" are rejected by modern liberals.

The box office has turned almost 100% fantasy, as all five of the 2018 box office blockbusters were fantasy/sci fi/super hero films. Modern man has walked over the line of despair and he has almost completely rejected any contact with reality. It is the last few breaths of a dying empire. Can you hear the wheezing? But, the good news is that Christian film is on the comeback. Between 2013 and 2016, the box office receipts on the new genre has grown fifty fold. We talk to Director Dan Nuckols and Film Writer Douglas Bond on the development of a film from a biblical worldview perspective. New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Purity rings, purity vows, purity ceremonies, and dances were popular for a few decades among Christian groups. But, problems developed when the little boys didn’t grow up and girls couldn’t get married. Immaturity dominated, on-line porn took the boys down; and combining vows of celibacy with a delay of marriage (and a reputation of young marriages) was a killer for evangelicals. Why aren’t our young men getting married? Why aren’t our girls getting married? The just will live by faith, and they will marry by faith. The breakdown of faith involves the breakdown of family. We give some practical advice for young people on getting married in this short segment. New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Christian colleges, evangelical denominations, and seriously mixed-up Christian leaders ball up social justice, feminism, me-too, and race conflicts into one big confusing package. And now, Calvinists and reformed people are accused of accommodating domestic violence and opposing social justice, because they think objectively about stuff. However, these pet issues as presented usually lack clarity and definition. Those who embrace these movements and buzzwords are all wrapped up in irrational, emotion-driven commitments to who knows what, and as well they refuse to submit to God’s laws as defining right and wrong. Confusion reigns, and Satan is in the middle of it all. These are serious matters because they are threatening to split whole denominations wide open. We do our best to clarify the issues by the Word of God in this edition of the program. New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The only good news going on in western civilization seems to be happening in America — the evangelical birth rate is finally on the rise. All other birth rates around the developed world are imploding. Japan will probably lose about 2/3 of its people, and not be a nation by 2100. Korea isn’t doing any better. But, the birth rate is not the only indication of life in a church. Life comes when we abandon the existentialist self-oriented worldview, and taking on the life of Christ, losing your life for His sake.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

A priest is in trouble for suggesting that a teen who committed suicide might not go to heaven. Is suicide the unforgivable sin? The life expectancy in America has fallen off for the first time in 100 years — because Americans are killing themselves.

The dangers of hierarchy and centralization of power in the church seems to produce corruption, lack of accountability, demagoguery, abuse, and all the rest. The Protestant Church and the Roman Catholic Church are in all out crisis mode now. The image of the Roman Catholic Church is befouled and apparently unsalvageable now. What can be done? A return to decentralized elderships and a rejection of the single pastor man-of-God motif is where the true church is headed. It sounds a lot like Titus 1:5, 1 Peter 5:1, Phil. 1:1, and 1 Timothy 4:14 — ordination by the laying on of the hands of a “presbytery.” New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The National Association of Evangelicals which includes the EV Free Church, the Presbyterian Church of America, the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, the Vineyard, and others have endorsed a plan to include homosexuals under federal nondiscrimination laws. This move sets real Christians up for persecution, while protecting fake Christians from persecution. The motions passed by the National Association of Evangelicals and the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities were based on the Utah Compromise. The Mormons capitulated first, and then the evangelicals followed them on this one. Is it the responsibility of the civil magistrate to provide for the “needs” of homosexuals who want a wedding? That seems to be the hinge argument of the evangelicals who are pushing for “homosexual rights.” We contrast this with the biblical ethical standard for the civil magistrate and the treatment of homosexuality.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com
