The Generations Radio Program

On this segment of Discipleship for Dads, Kevin Swanson, Danny Craig, and Todd Strawser address the sensitive but important topic of sexuality. Our world is an individualized world, with more access to pornography than ever before. However, Jesus came to save us from our sin. Instead of breeding an environment of condemnation, shame, and guilt, it's important to have a culture of open communication and confession in the home, especially when it comes to sexual sin.

Here is a PG-13 rated description of the National Institute of Health, Francis Collins, and human fetal tissue experimentation conducted over years. Why would a theistic evolutionist and an evangelical endorse the use of human fetal tissue for these experiments? Francis Collins’ definition of truth is neither biblical nor scientific, yet he was heavily endorsed by evangelical ministries.

There is a potential for scientists today to lean into experiments that promote a “brave new world,” including creating transgender animals, making orphans by experiments with embryos, and using synthetic wombs to avoid raising children in a familial environment. At the same time, science has the capacity to heal certain diseases and make it possible for babies to live when they might have died otherwise. What we need are scientists who fear God and who are willing to apply Biblical ethics to the world of science.

The Lion King remains as the most popular children's movie up to this point. It's seen as a “clean movie.” However, what is the real worldview behind The Lion King, Frozen, Beauty and the Beast, Toy Story 4, etc.? Kevin and Bill Jack discuss the common themes of feminism, witchcraft, evolution, Greek mythology, etc. that plague so many children's movies today.

Having the Spirit is essential to having new life in Christ. So what does it mean practically to walk in the Spirit, pray in the Spirit, and keep in step with the Spirit in our day to day? How do we avoid grieving or quenching the Spirit? We also know that God is sovereign over the events in each person’s life and in the world, but man is also responsible—yet God ordains the means as well as the end. So how can prayer change the mind of God if He already knows what will happen? Kevin Swanson and Joshua Schwisow address these questions and more on this edition of Generations.

Relationships are often destroyed by anger and pride in the home. How can dads go about rebuilding these relationships? What are some practical ways to combat an angry spirit in oneself and in your own children? Kevin, Bill Roach, and Danny Craig all join in on this discussion in this segment of Discipleship for Dads.

Javier Milei, the president of Argentina, was recently invited to the World Economic Forum, and in a speech, he went after liberalism, socialism, and humanism, speaking against abortion, euthanasia, and feminism. God seems to be having some grace on the nations, with increasing steps away from world government and some steps towards biblical principles in government and economics.

Pop culture is still deconstructing in America. Sean Diddy Combs led the modern extreme abuse-language culture of the 1990s, but the piper has invoiced, and it’s about over for him. Kanye West left the faith. Rushing Simon the Sorcerer to the front of the auditorium to take the pulpit just three months after he’s baptized is not a very good idea. Interestingly, pop music icons became the pastors of the modern evangelical church during the 2010s and early 2020s. Not smart.

Do we live in Babylon, more so today than a hundred years ago? What are the points of intersection between America and the Babylonian exile? Drawing from Jeremiah 29, we pull out the sort of life the Lord would have us to live under the present conditions. Build houses. Plant gardens. Have children.

What is laziness? Is it a sin? What are the outward manifestations of laziness sprouting within a child’s life? What is a Biblical view of work, rest, and recreation, and how can we as parents disciple our children through their (and our own) struggles with laziness? Kevin Swanson, Bill Roach, and Daniel Craig discuss these and other questions about the subject of laziness on this edition of the program.
