Generations Radio

News stories tells us of reformed guys arrested for DUI charges. Our listeners are asking questions about the new, popular “Beer Bible Studies.” Are these of edification to the saints? We discuss ditch-ology — the two ditches always lining both sides of the narrow path. Reformed licentiousness and fundamentalist legalisms (extra-biblical rules) are always a problem. Then, we review the problem with “fat Baptists.” Obesity among Baptists is 30 times the prevalence of obesity among Jews (according to an extensive study conducted by the National Institutes of Health), and 3 times that of the Reformation-Protestants. Interesting. . .  This program includes:  1. Generations with Kevin Swanson  2.

Why do the masses migrate so quickly to every conspiracy imaginable?  Alex Jones is concerned about powerful manipulators, but then so is Bernie Sanders. The influence of the anti-establishment right and left is not be ignored.  But what is the standard by which to determine right and wrong, or good and evil?  Of course there is a conspiracy — Psalm 2 makes that very clear.  But how do Christians interact with conspiracies without giving way to Satanic diversions and the “sovereignty of evil?”  This program includes: 1.

A Congressman is shot.  The inflammatory rhetoric is encouraging more violence and more blood on the streets.  What is the root problem with those who want to “fix” the problem with violence and murder?  What is the root problem with the angry father or mother in the home?  Wayne Mack, author of the book “Anger and Stress Management - God’s Way” explains the difference between good stress and bad stress, and good anger and bad anger.  And, we take a look at the God’s antidote for the “anger problem.”  This program includes:  1.

Some are saying that Contemporary Christian Music is dying or dead.  The genre is always caught in the tension between the ministry and the industry of it.  We replay the David Wilkerson scene when he stood up in a concert and cried out, “Ichabod! This is Satanic!”  How would Jesus address the popularity contest thing?  What would Jesus think about CCM?  This program includes:  1. Generations with Kevin Swanson  2.

The Bachelor in Paradise scandal and the Bill Cosby Trial present the best pretense of moral outrage. Fox News is upset with the Democrats for using the S-word, but they’re just find with Republicans abusing God’s Name.

Almost every major leader of every major nation in Europe is childless. What does this mean for the future of Europe? How do childless leaders develop policy that might benefit future generations? They won’t. That’s the simple answer. It is over for Europe. But what about America? How would you prepare for the future of nations on a suicidal bent?  This program includes:  1. Generations with Kevin Swanson  2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Cosby Jury Hanging Itself, Rebellion in the Anglican Communion, Persecution of Church in India)

The real problem with the Swedish Satanic Metal Band “Ghost” is not their chanting to Beelzebub and songs about human sacrifice.  The real problem with them is that they deny the supernatural and sin.  Now, the band is bound up in law suits, “unabashed dishonesty, greed, darkness.”  That’s what they’re confessing to, but was there any surprise that a band sold out to Satan would be dishonest, greedy, and dark?  We address the problem with the anti-supernatural worldview that is prevalent today, as well as the wrong view of supernaturalism that dominated with the Catholic church in the 1300s and the Protestant Church in Salem, Massachusettsin the 1690s.  This program includes: 1. Generations with Kevin Swanson 2. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Russian Orthodox Church Opposes Homosexuality, People Die in London Grenfell Tower Fire, Gunman Open Fires in Alexandria, Virginia)

If Jesus were visiting American churches, where would He be ministering?  Where would He go?  Now more than ever, we need to seek out the highways and byways, and find those who need the message of the Gospel, and the care of Jesus' people. These are every day people doing every day ministries in prisons, rest homes, and with adoptive children. This program includes:  1. Generations with Kevin Swanson  2.

Parents from Oregon choose not to use the American Medical Association recommended system for taking care of a premie baby, and the government charges them with murder. Meanwhile, parents in England had to watch their premie gasping for breath and dying, because the child didn’t qualify for medical care. Either way the child dies, and the parents must suffer. Kevin Swanson carefully walks through the principles that govern these matters of life and death.  This program includes:  1. Generations with Kevin Swanson  2.

Nobody was very surprised that Fox News Channel is collapsing under the weight of multiple sexual harassment scandals.  The sexual objectification and soft porn that characterized the Fox News website gave us a sense of the management of the organization.  We take a look at what the Bible says about sexual innuendo, sexual harassment, and the slight differences between the hypocrisy of Fox News and the hypocrisy of CNN.   Comparing hypocrisies on this edition of the program, including that of the Church of Scotland.  This program includes:  1.
