Hooters has recently filed for bankruptcy. Styles are changing—becoming more modest. There has been a shift in culture as far as dress goes. However, is there a change in hearts, or is this all outward appearance? Is there a humility in heart that accompanies the change in styles? What about other expressions of disobedience to God's law? We continue to live in a sexually-perverted and fornicating culture. How can Christians strive to live in accordance with God's law, and not just in outward appearances?

All the indices seem to point to the fact that America is in decline instead of becoming great again. China is currently the strongest nation economically, not America. America is slipping because of the character of the nation. The lack of character is affecting our economy, our culture, and our society. If America will be great again, what needs to happen to us? Will imposing tariffs, stopping emigration, and firing federal workers be enough? There is some merit to some of these things. But ultimately, it has to do with the fundamentals. We have to see a restoration of the gospel and people repenting of their sins and turning to Jesus. We need to see America becoming humble again.

There is a recent revival among men in the U.S., and with this comes relearning how to lead in the home. How can men follow Jesus' pattern of leadership? Humility, confession of sins, cultivating relationships, and sacrificing now for future investments are all important parts of leadership. Kevin Swanson interviews Chuck Black about this important subject. Chuck Black will also be at the Colorado Father Son Retreat in August of 2025.

It's the ultimate demonic perversion that has been loosed upon the world. The child sex trade is a $32 billion industry, but there are a handful of ministries that are engaging the dangerous work of rescuing children from the brothels. On this edition of the Generations Radio broadcast, Dr. Jeff Brodsky from Joy International explains his work. How much does it cost to save a child from this wretched plight? Donate at joy.org.

Due to some recording issues, the quality of this audio is poor. Marriage is under attack in our world today, and is one of the biggest battlegrounds for a Christian family. Prayer should be a constant in the marriage relationship. How can husbands walk with their wives under the grace of God? What is the balance between affirming and correcting a spouse?

The international birth rate has been cut in half since 1950. The US birth rate has gone from 3.4 to 1.7 within this most recent generation, and the average evangelical church has a birth rate just above the national average. The result is that we’re looking at the largest demographic shift since the world-wide flood. We’re living in a self-centered age that is all about “me,” which isn’t helping either. Do Christians need to look different from the world on the issue of birth control? What is the difference between birth control and conception control? Is conception control Biblically allowed? Kevin Swanson and Joshua Schwisow discuss these questions and more on this edition of the program.

The importance of Scripture in a father's life cannot be overstated. To be nurtured, convicted, and exhorted by God's Word every day should take high priority in every dad's life. The Word is relevant, authoritative, and life-giving, and it's a father's job to not only study God's Word himself, but to be exhorting and teaching his family about Scripture every day.

HB 2827 is a recent bill that challenges homeschool freedoms in the state of Illinois. It increases restrictions on homeschooling and is an assault on freedom. Eight thousand homeschoolers showed up to the Illinois state capitol to protest the bill. Protecting our freedoms is one of the most important things we can do in a world that's headed for more totalitarian government every day.

Throughout history, the influence of Jesus Christ over medicine has been very apparent. So many Christians have contributed to advancements in medical technology, the creation of hospitals, and a decrease in mortality rate, especially when it comes to infant mortality rates. However, Margaret Sanger came along in the 19th and 20th centuries and made attempts to reverse some of this. Today, are we gaining or losing ground when it comes to human life?

While Christians are attempting to engage the fight for liberty under God's law all over the world, the world powers are meanwhile engaged in proud displays of power. Men who love violence are running the major nations, Iran is a powder keg, and tariffs are causing divisiveness all over the world. Are we currently headed for a world war, and what should a Christian's reaction be to this possibility?

Property tax is crucial to the communist, Marxist agenda, which became entrenched in American between roughly 1845 and 1890. The end result is that we’re living under some of the most severe tyrannies of all time today. Until about 1913, taxes never exceeded 7 percent of the people’s income—including during the Roman Empire. Now we see tax rates of 40, 50, and 60 percent. But a movement to decrease property taxes seems to be sweeping the nation, starting with states like Wyoming. So, what is a proper tax rate, according to God? What principles should guide what the government collects from the people? On this edition of the program, Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss the topic of property taxes and the top priorities for reversing the communism that took hold of this country in 19th Century.

An important part of being a parent is discipline, but we want to be sure that we don't separate the gospel from law. How can parents incorporate a gospel message into their discipline?

America has become very individualistic over the years, which has also created a more individualized view of Christianity, and in particular, baptism. However, what does the Bible say about this topic? The Bible mentions household baptism and whole households being saved. Are household baptisms appropriate? What about sprinkling vs. immersion? When can we be sure that regeneration has occurred? It's good to chew on and be thoughtful about these questions.

Women are leaving the church in droves, while men are coming back into the church. In previous years, women have been attending churches in larger numbers. There is a desire for both men and women to be revived spiritually. However, what does a true revival look like? Is it tied to emotion and music, or is there more to it than that?

Does worldview matter? Do basic foundational doctrines really matter in the lives of Christians? A new study from Barna shows that only 11 percent of American adults believe in the doctrine of the Trinity, while 16 percent of self-proclaimed Christians hold to it. The number of Gen Z’s who believe in the Trinity comes in at only 8 percent. The doctrine of the Trinity has been largely neglected in churches today in favor of more “relevant” topics, the 20-minute homily, and the 40-minute music program. But not being grounded in the most basic doctrines makes one susceptible to false teachers. So how do we overcome this as we raise the next generation? First, check the foundations and worldview of everything you and your children participate in. Give your children a proper worldview as you teach them, and then instruct them on how to cast down every imagination and every high thing that exalts itself above Christ.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

In 1937, Disney's Snow White made $4 billion (adjusted for inflation), and is one of the highest-grossing films as of today. However, the most recent remake of Snow White, filled with feminism, Marxism, and socialism, has just bombed at the box office. Disney has dialed in on the wokeism of the day and continues to lose money. However, where did these stories originally come from, and what was the worldview of their authors? Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack explore the Grimm brothers, the fates, and the synthesis of Christianity and paganism that is present in many Grimm fairy tales.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

As our daughters grow older, it's important to address the topic of their future, whether this be as a single woman or a married woman. It's important for women to invest in economics and household management. However, if a girl or woman is interested in ministry work specifically, how can they prepare for this calling, even from a young age?

In this segment of Discipleship for Dads, we visit the importance of church vs. family. The reality is that fathers, families, and churches need to be revived, but what should take priority? It's a both/and - we can't have strong families without strong churches, and we can't have strong churches without strong families. If both are important, however, what should this look like for Christian families? How can families serve in the church? Is hospitality important? When is it appropriate for a pastor to step down for the sake of his family?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Jesus has made a huge amount of progress in the world over the past 2,000 years, with Christianity quickly taking over the continents and countries. However, the transformation that is visible today has not been without much sacrifice. On this edition of Generations, Kevin, Nolan, and Fred recount some of the incredible stories of missionaries throughout history.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The modern marketplace has a perspective that is far from Biblical when it comes to investments. This is primarily because the hearts of people today are largely controlled by greed. But what does the Bible have to say about investments, and investing wisely? Is it necessarily all tied to monetary gain and benefits? Anything we do for Jesus counts for eternity . . . and any investment is worth it if we have an opportunity to trade something temporal to gain an eternal return.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

A recent study shows that, worldwide, most people are spending an average of nearly seven hours on their screens each day. How can Christians combat this in their life? How can we cultivate good habits and get rid of bad habits? If we belong to God, we need to act like it, redeem our time, and spend time building relationships, working diligently, and seeking to learn more about God and His eternal wisdom.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Many Christians have become enthralled with some of the humanistic teachings of men like Aristotle, Hemingway, Mark Twain, etc. Thomas Aquinas had a similar view of Aristotle, and took a strong liking to his teachings, quoting Aristotle more than he quoted the Bible in his writings. On this edition of Generations, Kevin Swanson interviews Jeff Johnson, a pastor, concerning the importance of building our foundations on God and His Word, and rejecting humanism.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Bible encourages us to “seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” What does this look like for the average dad? In this segment of “Discipleship for Dads,” we take a look at practical ways in which dads can focus on managing their time to the glory of God. How can we balance work, family, and “me-time?” Is “me-time” something we should be concerned with? How important is the time we spend with our kids? Do we even like being with our children and our wife?New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss the importance of a father figure in the lives of boys. Men who never had a father figure won't take responsibility for their own children and families. This leads to a world of men like Andrew Tate, rooted in self-love, anger, and apathy. Christian men should be pro-life, pro-family, and pro-biblical sexuality in every way, shape, and form.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

There are now 8,500 women in combat roles in the US army, and 600 women in similar positions in the US marines. The gender confusion of today ultimately stems from gender role confusion and the feminist movement of the 1960s. God has set boundaries for each gender, and removing those only leads to disaster. So where do we go from here? The key is to get back to Biblical definitions of God’s roles for both men and women.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The Department of Education is cutting 50 percent of its workforce. This is a good step towards elimination of state control over the education of our children; however, will this lead to a complete end, or will this progress plateau? Education is one of the places where the war of ideas burns the hottest, and every parent should be deeply involved in their child's education. It isn't enough to hand your children over to the government to be raised. Christian parents need to take a stand against all state control over education.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

The destructive, evil nature of anger is particularly evident in children who are captivated by the angry spirit well into their teenage years. Whether it be the screaming, hitting, spitting, explosive sort, or more of the sullen silence, the biting sarcasm, and cold looks - anger can destroy a home.

More and more church attendees are leaving the church, with Baptists and Presbyterians losing a percentage over the past several years. Has it been helpful to water down the gospel in order to appeal to the world, or is the American church now paying the price? If churches and families don't disciple and ground their disciples in Biblical theology, it will all fall apart, and that's what we're seeing now.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Despite the media, universities, almost every museum in America, and even Christians being head over heels in love with the theory of evolution, it seems to be fading in the minds of some people today.

China may very well have grown to the largest Christian church population on Earth, but China has a problem! One hundred million people make up a growing, thriving church in China except for one little problem — they kill their children. Some churches even pay for abortions. The conscience of this nation is dead cold with respect to human life, and the Christian church isn't helping much. But what can these Christians do? The first pro-life ministry in China is being launched, and this may be one of the most important Christian needs on the earth today.

Andrew Tate, a prominent figure who is currently under arrest in Romania, encourages sexual sin and appears to have a great deal of disdain for women. He has become especially popular lately among men. Tate could be the most well-known influencer when it comes to male audiences. However, as Christian men approach these topics, they should ask themselves: Who should our role models be? Should Christian men be those who sacrifice themselves for women or leave a trail of fatherless babies everywhere they go? People are not to be used and abused, but valued and loved.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

How do we do family worship well? What does it look like? Is it simply studying the Bible as a family, or should it include other elements such as singing praises to God?

Currently, welfare programs in the U.S. are being used by a large number of illegal immigrants. How does the Word of God speak to immigration, and what should be the balance between justice and mercy? Liberals prefer to ignore the fact that sin is everywhere, and choose to believe that all humans are basically good. However, to do this is to consign the world to chaos.

The Biden-Trump voting pattern at that evangelical flagship, Wheaton College, was . . . 48 percent to 40 percent. That’s a total loss for the president, Phillip Ryken. We take a look at Ryken’s book on biblical ethics and find a fatal flaw. Should the board clean house on the professors, or remove half the student body who vote for the most committed pro-abortion candidates ever to run for the top offices?

Everybody should be feeling a whole lot of geopolitical shaking going on, but where are we supposed to align ourselves—with Europe or Russia?

On this segment of Discipleship for Dads, Kevin Swanson, Danny Craig, and Todd Strawser address the sensitive but important topic of sexuality. Our world is an individualized world, with more access to pornography than ever before. However, Jesus came to save us from our sin. Instead of breeding an environment of condemnation, shame, and guilt, it's important to have a culture of open communication and confession in the home, especially when it comes to sexual sin.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Here is a PG-13 rated description of the National Institute of Health, Francis Collins, and human fetal tissue experimentation conducted over years. Why would a theistic evolutionist and an evangelical endorse the use of human fetal tissue for these experiments? Francis Collins’ definition of truth is neither biblical nor scientific, yet he was heavily endorsed by evangelical ministries.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

There is a potential for scientists today to lean into experiments that promote a “brave new world,” including creating transgender animals, making orphans by experiments with embryos, and using synthetic wombs to avoid raising children in a familial environment. At the same time, science has the capacity to heal certain diseases and make it possible for babies to live when they might have died otherwise. What we need are scientists who fear God and who are willing to apply Biblical ethics to the world of science.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com

Having the Spirit is essential to having new life in Christ. So what does it mean practically to walk in the Spirit, pray in the Spirit, and keep in step with the Spirit in our day to day? How do we avoid grieving or quenching the Spirit?

Pop culture is still deconstructing in America. Sean Diddy Combs led the modern extreme abuse-language culture of the 1990s, but the piper has invoiced, and it’s about over for him. Kanye West left the faith. Rushing Simon the Sorcerer to the front of the auditorium to take the pulpit just three months after he’s baptized is not a very good idea. Interestingly, pop music icons became the pastors of the modern evangelical church during the 2010s and early 2020s. Not smart.New kids and family podcast from Generations - TeachMeTheFaith.com
