Generations Radio

Interview: Paul Washer Whatever the Christian "Gospel" became over the last generation or so within the evangelical church was not substantial enough to salvage the faith. So serious Christians are beginning to define the Gospel using biblical language, and they're bringing back old biblical notions such as the Fear of God, Repentance, and Regeneration. Kevin Swanson interviews Paul Washer on his his recent messages calling a nation to repentance, and starting with "evangelicals!"

Poodles in Tutus World magazine carries a blog that follows a nice Christian girl who has enlisted in the marines, with patriotic fervor to defend the interests of the empire (and to share the gospel with Iraqis;). Then Kevin Swanson hands the 45 to his daughter the night a burglar breaks in, while he snuggles under the covers. What is happening in the hearts of the fathers of this nation? We take a look at the biblical principles relating to women and the military on this segment of Generations, and the role of fathers in defending their homes.

Relationships or Drywall Since 1900, the birth rate in this country halved and the square footage doubled, an inescapable revelation of a nation's values. We love dry wall more than children! In one of the most powerful interviews we've ever done on Generations, Erik Weir gives testimony to how one high-flying, successful businessman hit the wall. His actions and his life betrayed his true heart values, and God shook him to the core. God isn't about stuff like money, drywall, food, and drink, as He is about the things which make for peace, and the things wherewith we edify one another – R-E-L-A-T-I-O-N-S-H-I-P-S. Whether you are a two income family, putting 106 hours away from the home into your $95K a year, or the guy with his private jet pulling in 5 mil a year, you need to hear this passionate, urgently-important message from Erik Weir!

The Transitions of our Lives Kevin Swanson interviews Mike and Tonya Chapa on transitions in the New Year, but more specifically the transitions from the military/corporate lifestyle to one that promotes a family oikonomia. There are special challenges when mom comes home, and then dad comes home! How does a family work through this?

It is impossible to separate us entirely from the culture around us. Our attitudes and actions are somewhat formed by our culture, and our children and our grandchildren will be different people because of what happened in the year 2009. So as is our custom, we've outlined the ten most outstanding socio-political developments of 2009 in this segment of Generations. And, it's. . . well, a little depressing. But the good news is the God is working in the nooks and crannies of the western world. A rising tide, a great awakening is happening now.

Incarnating the Proverbs 31 Vision The Generations radio program continues to cast an exciting vision for a massive transformation of modern economies into family-based "oikonomia's." Even in bear markets and in the throes of unemployment, some families make the best of it with a robust, enterprising spirit. In this inspiring interview, Kelly Crawford from GenerationCedar.com incarnates the Proverbs 31 vision, a concept quite foreign in the world around us.

Interview: Gene Antonio The Center for Reproductive Rights is encouraged! Missionary work on the part of humanists to export abortion and other neat things from the west has been fruitful in recent decades. Since 1996, at least 16 nations have legalized abortion or liberalized their laws. But several nations around the world have held off on official state approval of the shedding of innocent blood. The Dominican Republic is one of these nations, recently passing a constitutional amendment declaring the right to life “inviolable from conception.” Kevin Swanson interviews homeschooling father and missionary, Gene Antonio who was on the front lines of this struggle in the DR. Gene talks about how he integrates his family into the ministry, while taking God's truth to the nations.

How Christians Impact Culture Around the World! Since the 1980s, there have been some groups of Christians actually applying their faith in real and concrete ways in . . . well . . . life! After a hiatus of 150 years+, a Christian world and life view perspective is on the come back, and it's about time! Stephen McDowell, president of the Providence Foundation, shows how Christians can impact the culture and politics, and how it is already happening in Asia, Eastern Europe, and Africa. Here is a powerful, exciting interview you do not want to miss!

Family Celebrations What does it mean when the world celebrates Christmas? Kevin Swanson points out how Christmas both demonstrates the shallowness and the failure of the Christian faith, and at the same time shows the worldwide reputation of a Savior who came to save us. But what did He come to save us from? For some reason, this message always seems to dissipate in the modern "Christmas" story of babies, mangers, angels, and shepherds. But what should our families celebrate, if celebrations and remembrances are important in the raising of our children? Kevin Swanson and Dave Buehner talk to celebrations and traditions in their families.

Forging Chains in DC In the words of Patrick Henry, "It is when people forget God, that tyrants forge their chains." So our Senate representatives are busy forging chains not unlike those links formed in the establishment of public schools, social security, and other socialist projects. America is taking one giant step towards total socialism tonight, as our Senators prepare to give us a gift of mandatory health insurance, huge tax increases, more government debt, and total government control of healthcare. Yet God is faithful. One tiny island of freedom remains. Kevin Swanson speaks of tyranny, a government-sponsored kidnapping of a homeschooled child in Sweden, violence against Christians, and the wonderful, blessed freedom that comes by Jesus Christ, on this broadcast.
