Faith ExternalizedHave you ever wondered why you can't find a Precious Moments doll in a Christian book store depicting David holding up the severed, bloody head of Goliath? Have you ever wondered why the Voice of the Martyrs doesn’t sell Thomas Kinkade Drawings? Or have you ever wondered why it is that of the 100s of pictures of Noah's Ark on Google Images, you won't find one with the dead, bloated bodies of millions of people floating around the ark --- a picture that would present the real reason God brought the flood in the first place? 'Here Kevin Swanson and Dave Buehner engage a lively discussion on Christian art forms, shallow theology, and what's hanging on their walls.

Dictatorship or Fatherhood - Take Your Pick The pigs are taking over the barn yard down at the Animal Farm. For example, Justice Ginsburg thought Roe V. Wade would limit “populations that we don’t want too many of. . . “ Meanwhile John Holdren, the new Science Czar, writes approvingly of forced abortion and mass sterilization through contaminating the water supplies, and other fun social planning projects. Kevin Swanson explains the history of social planning in the development of our own modern Matrix. Then he points out that there are only two rebels that attempt to break out - anarchists and fathers.

Doing the Hard Work How do you put a broken society full of broken families back together again? It would be easy if you could toss the single moms on to the government welfare programs, and toss their kids into the pagan, public schools that refuse to teach the beginning of knowledge is the fear of God. Plan B is a tougher row to hoe. And you can't do it with a church full of single moms and disengaged dads. A couple of engaged dads in studio - Bob Fine, Dave Buehner, and Kevin Swanson talk to the challenge they have faced over the last nine years working with single moms of faith, who are willing to deal with the spiritual issues and practical issues important in reconstructing their lives (by the power of God). This "divorce recovery workshop" involves the tough life of repentance, humility, and godly submission.

How to Govern a Nation in Decline Kevin Swanson interacts with Governor Sarah Palin's resignation speech, and commends her for her actions. Societies (families, churches, nations, whatever) led by women are societies in decline. But back to the more serious question, "How does one govern a nation in decline?" The first thing you do is go home and raise a godly family and protect your little girls from the Levi Johnstons of the world.

Falling Stars The pop culture is rotting quickly. It didn't really last that long. Here Kevin Swanson traces the rise and the fall of pop culture, from Beethoven to Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson and finally down to Eminem. Kevin makes the point that social systems drive cultural expressions. Almanzo Wilder would have had Michael Jackson committed to an insane asylum. Over the last 100 years, the teen social life, the disintegrated family, the city life, the fornicating, unaccountable hook-ups and one-night-stands, eventually produced a form of culture that accommodated the social system we had made for ourselves. But the end of this culture is in sight. Then what?

Bringing a Real Solution to the Problem Of all of the problems that face our culture today, there is probably none so serious as the lack of manhood and biblical fatherhood. According to Newsweek Magazine, 70% of young men are not grown up at 30 years of age (and that's up from 30% in 1970). Here are a couple of dads that are determined to do something about it. Kevin Swanson and MIke Cheney discuss the benefits and the challenges of mentorships and apprenticeships. The AME Program has been operational for one year now, and the revival of this age-old system is materializing. With the decline of education, as well as the economics and the character of a nation, there has never been a more important time for men to step up and agree to mentor young men!

An Interview with Ken Ham An extensive study of the 20-something crowd finds that those who were raised in conservative churches and Sunday Schools are MORE likely to doubt the Bible, approve of pre-marital sex, abortion, and macro-evolutionary theories! Going to church will harden you against God? Would it have been better if they had never gone to Sunday School? In this ground-breaking interview on the Generations Radio broadcast, Ken Ham describes a deadly recipe for apostasy that includes the combination of a secular worldview, a compromising church, and massive abdication of parental responsibilities. The fact of the matter is that America is in apostasy, and the vast majority of the nation’s children and grandchildren will reject the God of the Bible. And if you still believe the Bible, you know that apostates do not go to heaven.

Ethics and the Bible Since the 1950s socially acceptable sins are slowly evolving from fornication and adultery to homosexuality and pedophilia. But the worldview war has come down to this... Does God have the right to tell us what to do or not? Have Christians abandoned their basis for ethics? This is basic ethics and every family needs to be savvy on this worldview war where it rages the hottest.

Our Collapsing National Integrity and You Kevin and Dave try to name a major national conservative leader who does not have a daughter who is a lesbian, has not had an affair, has not tapped a shoe in an MSP airport restroom stall, etc. The Moral Integrity of the nation is collapsing. Yet, our leaders are only a reflection of us. This program gets into the nuts and bolts of what to do when a husband has committed adultery, or a child has fallen into fornication, or drunkenness, or . . . Drawing from the book of Proverbs, we hold that prevention is always the best strategy. Of course, repentance is always essential, for the sanctification and renewal of all areas of our lives.

Church Freedoms and Family Freedoms Our forefathers went to war over 27 cents of annual taxation, and now we bow to government taxing the citizens up to 60% of the Gross National Income, and the National Debt obligating each family in America to the tune of $1,000,000 plus. The freedoms held dear by those that fought hard included primarily freedom for the church to operate free from the regulatory influences of the state. Of course the church is pretty irrelevant to most people today, so they would hardly hold this freedom sacrosanct anymore. But now the battle has shifted to the sphere of the family. Of course the family is pretty irrelevant to most people today, so they would hardly hold parental rights sacrosanct anymore. Kevin Swanson also challenges the listening audience to a new battle for freedom, over the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
