Parenting by the Book - Interview: John Rosemond

November 2, 2011
Psychologist John Rosemond may be the busiest “parenting expert” in America. With the breakdown of faith, morality, and character in this nation, John suggests that we “get back to the book.” Initially an atheist, he eventually came to realize that God had it right after all!

News of Sharia Law replacing Khadafi's dictatorial reign doesn't bring a great deal of assurance that everything's back to "hunky-dory" in war-torn North Africa. One demon leaves, seven return (as Jesus put it). With the rise of fundamental Islam and the rising interest in secularism among the youth, it appears that the turmoil may continue in this part of the world. Kevin Swanson interviews David Noor and Isaac Botkin on their recent journey into North Africa and their examination of religions and worldviews.

The Netherlands is now approving the euthanasia of those who are lonely and "socially challenged." Iceland has a lesbian prime minister, the first in the modern world, perhaps the first ever. Kevin Swanson interviews Doug Phillips on his return from Iceland, and several other European tours concerning the state of Europe and its future. Will the last few Christians from Europe escape to America on the European collapse? Why is Europe ahead of America in its present decline?

“Character is essential for our children.” It would be hard to find anybody – whether humanist, atheist, or Muslim – who might disagree with that statement! But what do WE mean when we talk about biblical character, and how does ours differ from ordinary run-of-the-mill pagan character? Kevin Swanson interviews Rick Boyer on how to teach your children biblical character (both heart and hands) using God’s Word.

Do we treat our children as pagans? Do we encourage them to pray? Do we teach them obedience before we teach them about faith in Christ? When is a child converted, and what does that look like? Some have taught a "presumptive regeneration." Some teach Christian parents to be faithless. But where is the biblical balance here? Dr. Joel Beeke takes us through these thorny issues, and establishes a biblical understanding of the covenant home in this short interview. Take this as an introduction to Dr. Beeke's important new resource for parents - "Parenting by God's Promises."

Why do American Christians break their covenants? America has the highest divorce rate in the world, and the divorce rate among evangelicals is usually higher than that of Catholics. In the wake of the Marriage Conference, Kevin Swanson interviews Scott Brown on the relationship of marriage and the Gospel.

A family in Sweden is losing permanent custody because they tried to homeschool their child. Meanwhile, a man in Alaska is in jail because his son missed 14 days of school last year. Kevin Swanson wonders out loud why guys like Patrick Henry, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson would think about this. We must submit our oppressive governments to the rigors of God's law. If we do so, we will find that compulsory attendance laws are tyrannical! The state is imposing upon the family, and the situation is just getting worse.

We call this the "Best Idea of 2011!" Put a candle in the window and show a little hospitality to others! Hospitality (opening homes and hearts to strangers) is a basic definition of a "Christian." This is what followers of Jesus do. They open up their homes to strangers. Kevin Swanson interviews Theresa Bowen on a terrific new on-line hospitality network called "A Candle in the Window.com." Turn your home into a warm, inviting, hospitable oasis, and train your children to reach out to others in tangible ways! You will enjoy this warm interview on family-integrated ministry!

After 50 years of relative prosperity, the Gen Xers and the Millennials are going to have to face the facts – IT’S OVER. And 12 years of big-time debt spending from Bush and Obama haven’t revived the flailing beast. The average American has seen his income decrease by 7% over the last 10 years, yet he’s paying more for gas and groceries. Get ready for more of this! According to the Christian Science Monitor, “Not since at least 1960 has the U.S. standard of living fallen so fast for so long.” The golden years of the Republic are over. But now what? What comes next? Kevin Swanson suggests a new paradigm on this edition of Generations. This is a great time to abandon the debt-based, family-fragmenting system in favor of a biblical economy! The time has never been better for a Family Economics Conference from March 8th-10th, 2012.

Unemployment is breaking out into more social unrest. Kevin Swanson points out that the “Occupy Wall Street” revolutionaries fit the bill for Proverbs 30:12-15. They hate all of the corruption they find in government and business, but they are corrupt themselves and seek even more government solutions to the problems. We recommend more self-government and less federal government – something the revolutionaries would never imagine. Also, America’s birth rate is the lowest ever – it is now imploding. Is there a correlation between unemployment and lower birth rates? With the present socio-economic system cracking, what is next? Are your families ready for what is to come?

What is the church’s responsibility? Relationships are too messy! The Preaching of the Bible is too offensive, man! Hey, why don't we just do a soup kitchen and call it done. What is the Christian’s responsibility in respect to the culture, in respect to addressing the affects of sin on a city? Do we become Marxists, and seek more redistribution of the wealth at the hands of the state? Is the church responsible for adopting the orphan, or is that the responsibility of the family sphere? Confusion reigns in these areas. Christians are constantly tossed about some sort of a jurisdictional free-for-all, because the Word of God is seldom seen as an “ethical standard” for Christians anymore. On this segment of Generations, we attempt to work out the mission of the church in an interview with Greg Gilbert, coauthor of the book, “What is the Mission of the Church?”
