The Bible on your kitchen table cost William Tyndale his life. Five hundred years ago, he gave English-speaking families the New Testament in their own language, and he was burned at the stake for it. Kevin and Josh tell Tyndale's story, including how his jailer's whole family came to Christ while he was in prison. Then they open the Scriptures to show why God wants His Word in every language. Jesus spoke Aramaic, the apostles quoted a Greek translation, and at Pentecost, everyone heard the gospel in their own tongue. It's a great one to listen to with your kids, and a good reminder never to take the Bible in your hands for granted.

Kevin Swanson and Daniel Craig discuss two school shootings with very different outcomes. In one, hundreds of police did nothing for 77 minutes; in the other, one man stopped the shooter immediately. They boil down the huge implications for what it means to be a man – and how to train our boys to assume manhood. They discuss… - How hard it is to being willing to "die" for others in even the smallest ways, let alone in the face of true death - What's even more important than gun training for teaching our sons to instinctively sacrifice themselves – even when their flesh screams against it - How the demands of providence are not inconveniences or obstacles, but opportunities God provides to image his Son - The biblical view of heroism as self-sacrificial love, vs the pagan ideal motivated by honor - How to habitually practice assuming responsibility for others, and dying to self – so we're instinctively ready to give everything if we are faced with the need Got a topic you want us to cover?

In America, we now spend $220 per family on Halloween – and just $40 on Easter. Meanwhile, harvest festivals are increasingly excuses to celebrate the Day of the Dead, Wicca has become a badge of honor, and the horror genre is exploding. Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss the history of Halloween, its modern descent into glorifying death and darkness, and whether Christians today should still celebrate it. They talk about… - How Christians changed the name and meaning of October 31 – but now we've reverted to the pagan holiday while keeping the Christian name - How religious beliefs are externalized in symbols, and where we put our money indicates where our heart is - The human impulse to worship what we fear, and how our reaction to covid explains our infatuation with celebrating death - Why infatuation with the occult is a recurring feature of modern thinking, and the connection to rock-and-roll - How Christians can repurpose Halloween to redeem it for a holy cause – rather than being Debbie Downers and refusing to get involved at all Got a topic you want us to cover?

What should you know about raising kids who progress slower, require more attention, and increase the levels of stress for parents? Kevin Swanson is joined by David Braun and Bill Roach to discuss caring for special needs children – those with emotional, physical, and spiritual challenges well beyond normal. They discuss… - How to counsel a parent who has just discovered their child has a condition like Down's Syndrome - What's wrong with the term "special needs," and a better way to think about it - How to distinguish between physical inability and sin, to avoid disciplining children for things they can't help - How to teach the gospel to someone who will never be able to understand complex ideas - The one thing more helpful than any kind of therapy Got a topic you want us to cover?

Joshua Emmanuel grew up the son of a Presbyterian minister and memorized the Westminster Confession by age 8. By 13 he was using drugs and making a point of being the atheist in his Christian school's Bible class. At 17, God brought him back. Today Joshua runs the Jungle Ministry in Jos, Nigeria, working with the men most churches there have written off: addicts, hustlers, and traffickers living in the slums. He tells Kevin Swanson what brought him back to the faith, what his father did right, and why he spends his time on a few men instead of crusades and altar calls. Kevin asks the question behind it all: how do kids raised in Christian homes catch a real Kingdom vision instead of walking away? #ChristianParenting #Discipleship #Missions #GenerationsRadio #KevinSwanson #JoshuaEmmanuel
