There are over twice as many unemployed twenty-somethings as there were four years ago! That’s a 200% increase in the unemployment ratio! Is there any reason to sit around and twiddle the thumbs? Opportunities are always everywhere. Kevin Swanson interviews Russ McGuire on his mentorship of young men through entrepreneurship. How does a young man learn entrepreneurship, and what does it take to succeed?

The Western faith is dying. Muslims are moving into territories that were once inhabited by Christians (and were burned out by the humanists). There is a tiny fraction of conservative Christians left who have not turned towards humanism (a man-centered epistemology). Sadly, the gods of humanism are now fracturing these small denominations that make up less than 1% of our country. The PCA’s New York Metro Presbytery is playing with “Enns” theology, which undermines the authority of Scripture from the very first verse. When men call into question Christ’s understanding of the historical Adam, they question the Creator Himself. We have it on good authority that the Creator was there—that is, at creation. The faith is at stake, and so is science. It is a question of epistemological authority, and this is an acid test.

How does football compare to the gladiatorial competitions of the Roman Empire? And how does the behavior of coaches at Penn State compare with the behavior of coaches in the Greek gymnasium? Hardly. But there are a few points of correlation. Kevin Swanson and Dave Buehner discuss Tebowing, “Jesus” on jerseys, and the Penn State scandal on this edition of Generations.

There are now at least eight sexual indoctrination laws impacting children in every California public school, and the big one kicks in on January 1, 2012. The social pressures that are separating hearts of the fathers and the children are extraordinary today. Kevin Swanson interacts with the Barna report on the present exodus of young people from the church. It's not just the 20-somethings. It's the teens! Over the last 20 years, Christian children attending public schools and Christian schools have inculcated an increasingly humanist and socialist worldview. That according to the Nehemiah Institute's extensive study.

China may very well have grown the largest Christian church population on earth, but China has a problem! One hundred million people make up a growing, thriving church in China except for one little problem—they kill their children. Some churches even pay for abortions. The conscience of this nation is dead cold with respect to human life, and the Christian church isn’t helping. But what can these Christians do? The first pro-life ministry in China is being launched, and this may be one of the most important Christian needs on the earth today. Kevin Swanson interviews an insider who has first-hand information on the inner workings of the house church movement (representing some 100 million people). This remarkable interview statuses one of the most important developments for the kingdom of God in the 21st century.

More concrete from the foundations of Western civilization careens to the pavement below. For over 1,200 years adultery was considered a felony in England. This is not so any more. An online dating company that specializes in adulterous affairs has been nominated for Britain’s National Business Awards. It’s a brave new world. It’s a neat experiment. But it’s not going to last much longer. Also in this program, we discuss “Generation Jobless.” Why is the unemployment rate for young men 2-3 times what it was 4 years ago

52% of American Pastors will not mention the persecuted church, nor do they plan to ever speak of them. It brings to mind something that Christ said to the goats in Matthew 7. Apparently, the goats did not recognize Jesus in His persecuted saints. But what will Jesus do to pastors who won't visit His persecuted brothers? Is this a distinguishing characteristic for sheep and goats? Kevin Swanson also explains how the system persecutes Christians in America as well as in the Soviet Union or China.

Moms! Why did you have eight children? Why are you changing all those diapers, and washing dishes, and…and…? Without a vision, the people perish. And without a vision, women perish too. That’s Natalie Klejwa’s point with her website www.visionarywomanhood.com. Too many mothers can’t see the forest for the trees because they fail to get a vision for what they are doing. What does a mother of faith look like, and how does her faith affect her home? Kevin Swanson interviews Natalie on how she got a vision for motherhood, and how she encourages this in other women as well.

The "Personhood" movement is growing across the United States. The referendum in Tuesday failed by a vote of 42 to 58. But it was an important vote. Such votes test the commitment of a state to the life issue. Too many pro-lifers fake their commitment to the basic principle. And if it wasn't for opposition from pro-life groups and Christian groups, the Personhood Amendment might have been approved by Mississippi voters. Kevin Swanson interviews Leslie Hanks from Colorado Right to Life on the Personhood movement in Colorado, Montana, and Mississippi.

For those who don’t want to rely so heavily on big business and big government, and for those who want to build family economies, urban farms may be the way to go. You don’t have to invest $600,000 to buy 400 acres in Kansas. You can plant a garden in your backyard (or your front yard for that matter)! The trend is taking off around the nation. Even Detroit is turning some of its burned-out neighborhoods back into God’s green earth. Kevin Swanson interviews Greg Peterson from Urbanfarm.org about what he has done with his third of an acre in Phoenix, Arizona.
