We offer a tribute to the life of R.C. Sproul, one of the last of the 20th century reformers in the Western church. Will the younger generation continue this work, or are they dropping the ball? Included with this broadcast is a last “prophetic” word to the 21st century church as part of an interview with Dr. Sproul. We asked the question, “Where does the church need reformation in the 21st century?” His answers were prescient and applicable to us today. This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2.

Hatred, victimhood, and loss of manhood have created a three-fold cord of a sinful predicament for many among the African-American population. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson helps to unwind the conundrum for us, and point to redemption. How did Barack Obama contribute to worsening the tensions? And, how can we “rebuild the man” and rebuild the foundations of a broken society? This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Ben Carson Leads Trump Cabinet in Prayer, Many People Still Living Without Electricity in Puerto Rico, Nick Vujicic and Wife Kanae Announce the Birth of Twins)

The marriage rate for the millennials has dropped in half as compared to 1980. Only 38% of millennials (25-34) are married now. When they do get married, many are getting divorced (even among Christian families). It’s “scary” out there. Do we want our children getting married if they are going to get divorced? Kevin Swanson offers several biblical answers to help divorce-proof you kids before they get married. This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (President Trump’s Christmas Message on Isaiah 9, Evolutionist Admits He Was Wrong on Origin of Life, Billy Graham’s Message to America)

The Generations team takes a look at the best part of Christmas movies. Mary takes the show over George Bailey, in “It’s a Wonderful Life.” But, where is Christ in “A Christmas Carol?” We take a look at the faith of Linus and compare it to Charlie Brown and Charles Schultz in Charlie Brown’s Christmas.

Now, 68% of Americans want to use the term “Happy Holidays” or “X-mas” or something besides Christmas. Where did the modern trend towards paganizing Christmas start? We take a look at Adolf Hitler’s attempts to remove Christ from history and from Christmas. Then, we talk to Christian families about avoiding the wrong emphases, the wrong symbols, and the wrong way to handle the holidays. This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Special Report: Girls Still Victims of Abortion Despite China's Two-Child Policy, Defections From North Korea Up Three-fold, Life Expectancy in U.S. Drops for Second Consecutive Year)

The Trump administration has dumped the United Nations abortion funding, and it’s about to defund UNESCO as well. We take a look at the roots of the United Nations, and the worldview behind the charter. The United Nations is trying to correct nations that assign the death penalty for adultery, but what would Martin Luther and John Knox say about this? Also, we take up the practical question - what happens when a girl friend or wife wants an abortion, but the father resists? What should the magistrate do if a wife starts killing the kids via abortion? This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2.

With the multitudinous scandals coming out of Christian ministries, it seems appropriate that we learn how to deal properly with them. We refer to the child molestations allegations and investigations of child molestations that surrounded Voice of the Martyrs from 2012 to the present. These things ride like a cloud on these ministries, but how does one resolve it? Now, a cloud has descended upon Ravi Zacharias’s ministry as well. Kevin Swanson recommends independent investigations, and accountability with church eldership. This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Chile Elects More Pro-Life President, Amtrak Train Wreck Kills Six in Washington State, California Board of Education Approves Ten Pro-Homosexual Textbooks)

Do we really want to be called “evangelicals?” The term is increasingly nebulous, although it was supposed to distinguish “true” Christians from liberals. We look at the history of the term, and the morphing of it through the centuries. Then, we take a look at the hyped up, modern worship service where almost nobody is singing anymore. What ever happened to congregational singing? More importantly, has the Holy Spirit departed from the evangelical church? Is this Ichabod? This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Al Mohler & Mike Huckabee Respond to Judge Moore’s Loss, Evangelical Leaders Give Tributes to R.C. Sproul, Speaker of House Paul Ryan Urges American Families to Have More Children)

California’s Governor Jerry Brown takes on a prophetic role, as he calls President Trump to the fear of the Lord, or a fear of the wrath of God. This liberal governor links the wrath of God to the fires in California. Indeed, God’s judgment has visited this nation this year. This year brought record hurricane damages and record fire damages — in the same year. Almost 10,000,000 acres have burned down, causing around $180 billion in damages. We contrast three explanations for the fires. The typical academic/media explanation that points to a chance universe, Jerry Brown’s explanation, and the Bible’s explanation for these natural disasters. This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (R.C. Sproul Is With the Lord, Indonesia Pastor Faces Five Years in Jail, New Zealand Marches for Life)
