Do Most People Go to Hell?
Kevin Swanson grapples with why the Christian faith he grew up with in the 1970s was so squishy, and why so many of those "Christian" kids wound up divorced, and then their kids. . . Well, we don't even want to talk about them.
So what makes a robust faith that will sustain the generations? In the middle of a tidal wave of apostasy sweeping over the western world, it’s about time to reexamine our basic worldview commitments. Do you really have a God-centered epistemology, metaphysics, and ethics, and is that what you are conveying to your children? Or is it warmed-over, watered-down humanism?
Kevin recommends three things for putting a little rebar in the faith - a solid, solid doctrinal foundation, an intensely relational, family discipleship, and solid, serious preaching from the Word.
