Burning Man is a symbolic resurrection of the druidic wicker-man festival for human sacrifice. So why has Elon Musk said, "Burning Man is Silicon Valley?" Why do the wealthiest and most powerful people in the world attend it? To find the answers, Kevin Swanson talks to Alex Newman about what he saw at Burning-Man 2026. They discuss… * The belief that we can reverse the fall by seeking power from the created world – and how modern tech moguls are a new kind of wizard, using tools, money, and knowledge to grasp for godlike power - The blasphemous and perverse practices that run rampant at Burning Man, from people channeling spirits so the audience can interact with them, to orgies accompanied by Christian music - Whether some modern technological advancements might be derived from communications with demons - How Burning Man represents the tip of the spear in a movement to re-paganize the Western world - Where technology will take us from this point – and how Christians can respond to protect themselves and their children Got a topic you want us to cover?

We call the last 24 hours of history "the news," and modern Christians spend a LOT of time on it. But how important is it to God? Does the Bible say something about keeping up with the news? How much does it call us to know what is happening at home, or around the world? Kevin Swanson and Joshua Schwisow go to scripture to find the answers, and discern what matters most to God out of the billions of events in the past day. They discuss… - To what extent we are obliged to know what is going in order to know the signs of the times - What the difference is between news and gossip – and how this affects our use of social media - Why almost EVERYTHING on both Fox and CNN is not worth watching according to biblical principles of news - Why scripture would have us limit our interest in political news – and how much weight we should give it - How to discerning the core lessons and applications in news of disasters (rather than just being emotionally moved or titillated by them) Got a topic you want us to cover?

US government schools are failing. There's been a 24-point drop in math skills since 2009, and a 14-point drop in reading skills just since 2018. Why? According to a recent study, it is not a failure of academics – the real issue is student behavior. Chaos and violence in the classroom is an everyday occurrence that makes teachers' jobs "almost impossible." Kevin Swanson and Daniel Craig discuss what scripture says should be done to reform education. They talk about… - The unambiguous reason that teachers themselves identify for kids' bad behavior: it's their parents' fault - The place of corporal punishment…and whether it can be delegated to babysitters or daycare workers - Why anyone should have been able to predict that bifurcating character and academics would lead to disaster - What should be done about teachers' job satisfaction dropping from 62% to 18% in only 15 years - The three fundamental pillars of successful education that must be constantly woven together – and how government schools split them apart instead Got a topic you want us to cover?

"This election, the future of America is at stake" – it's a bit like the boy who cried wolf. But this time it really may be true. The upcoming midterm features the biggest swings in our lifetime, with socialists, communists, and Islamists in the running. Kevin Swanson talks to Tim Barton of WallBuilders about what's going on nationwide, and how the future of America would fundamentally change if even 50 percent of evangelicals would actually vote. They discuss… - The misleading use of opinion polls to influence future votes, rather than reflect voter intention - Why the midterms matter easily as much as the presidential election for the future of America - What the stakes are in terms of real changes to expect in the nation, that would affect the typical Christian - The major ballot measures to keep an eye on (which are trending in a very positive direction and even crossing the political aisle!)

Christianity built peaceful and prosperous societies – but where it disappears, barbed wire fences and barred windows return. Following their trip to South Africa, Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss how far down this road the US is. Are we far behind South Africa? They talk about… - The possibility of civil war or secession over abortion, with southern states challenging liberal state "shield" laws that protect kill-pill providers, like laws protecting slave traders… - What studies show about the importance of these issues in the minds of Republicans and Democrats – and how those for evil are much more passionate about it than those against… - The recent Satanic prayer to open a city council meeting in Iowa, ending with "Hail Satan."

Note: This edition of the Generations Radio Program originally aired in 2025. Should America or Christians in general be actively seeking to defend the nation of Israel? What is to be said for the Seed of Abraham inheriting the world? The rising tide of anti-semitism and wars in the Middle East bring the question of the nation of Israel to the forefront in the minds of many Christians. We ask the question, "What does the Bible say about that?" But our real task here is to train us all how to handle the trunk and the leaves, the quarrelsome and the questionable, the divisive and the controversial, the camels and gnats, in theology. While we may not answer all the questions that various Christian sects would prefer us answer, we stick to core issues here as a matter of principle.

What happens when the socialist state can't deliver what it promised?
