Generations Radio

The Most "Educated" States This edition of Generations covers the Pew Forum's survey on religion across the American states. Kevin Swanson points out that the most godless states in America correlate with the most educated states. But the roots of a state matter, as well. What happened 100 years ago in any people group has a profound influence on where the state will go in the future.

One Precious Life Salvaged The integrity of the "right" is shattered when the principle is undermined, and men take an inconsistent position on the right to life. Nowhere do we find a more egregious chink in the integrity of the "conservatives" than in the abortion exceptions made for rape and incest. In this segment of Generations, Kevin Swanson interviews Rebecca Kiessling, a woman conceived in rape and now a homeschool mom of five and national advocate for the right to life.

What the Fall of an Empire Looks Like We are experiencing some very historic events RIGHT NOW! After 250 years of a glorious nation and a rising empire, the year 2000 marked the beginning of the decline. Now, all indices (including economic and political) indicate that America is now in decline as a world power. A new era is dawning in the world. But how do Christians view these changes? Kevin Swanson sounds a hopeful, but sober challenge on this issue of Generations.

Avatar - The Ultimate Escape from Reality As the empire collapses, the box office is breaking all-time records. Apparently, the people still want bread and games. Kevin Swanson reviews two super block-buster movies, along with the recent release of Sherlock Holmes on this edition of Generations. Where is the culture headed? What is the world and life view that is supported by billions of dollars at the box office? Listen to this edition of Generations and find out how modern man seeks the ultimate escape from reality.

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.
