Homeschooling can be chaotic, and it’s easy to let the big things slip sometimes. But…what ARE the big things?

Kevin Swanson sits down with Daniel Craig and Bill Roach to discover what God says parents absolutely MUST teach their kids…

- The real place of academics, and why music is actually more important than math
- The fear of the Lord, without which any other knowledge is impossible
- Knowing, believing, and living the Word in obedience
- Loving the brothers we can see, so we can love the God we cannot
- The duty of stewardship, loving and serving others diligently, even when we don’t feel up to it
- Honoring father and mother, not because otherwise they’ll get annoyed, but because God makes this claim on their lives

Kevin and Jacob look at 60 years of televangelism: the false Christ it presents, why it draws the poor and the disabled, and why people keep giving even when the promised hundredfold never arrives. They also take up a harder question. If God blesses obedience, why do faithful Christians like William Tyndale still suffer and die? And are today's 60 million podcasters any better than the televangelists?

The Botkin sisters recently apologized for their book, So Much More, which argues that it’s nearly sinful for a woman to leave her father’s house before she is married.

But were they right to issue this apology? What does the Bible say? Kevin Swanson and Josh Schwisow sift the scriptural indicatives and imperatives to figure out the answer…

- What Numbers 30 really says about the extent of a father’s authority over his unmarried daughter
- How to balance binding the consciences of single women vs. encouraging them to become single career-minded boss-babes freezing their eggs by the age of 30
- Why it can actually be better for a daughter to leave the home, rather than staying – and at what age this starts to apply
- How a woman should be preparing for marriage when single…and how she might need to leave the home to do this
- How equating singleness with isolation/independence is a Marxist and statist view – and what the biblical alternative is

The media's heroes are celebrities famous for defying God. Who are God's heroes, and are we giving them to our children?
 
 Kevin Swanson and Danny Craig tell the stories of Wycliffe, Tyndale, William the Silent, and the Scottish Covenanters, including teenagers who chose death over denying Christ.
 
 Hebrews 11 gives us a cloud of witnesses. This episode calls parents to pass those stories on and raise sons and daughters to be God's heroes in their families, churches, and communities.

Abortion didn't even make the list of top priorities for Republican voters in a recent AP-NORC survey. With the midterms weeks away and abortion referendums on the ballot in Idaho and Missouri, are Christians paying attention to the signs of the times?

Kevin talks with Sam Rust about what's at stake this November, and in Brazil's elections. They discuss:

- What's on the ballot in Idaho…and can the abortion referendum be defeated?
- Why do pro-life leaders and pro-life voters so often fail to line up at the ballot box?
- Turnout, money, and enthusiasm…what could actually decide the midterms?
- Should pastors speak about elections from the pulpit…and what can churches legally say?
- Is America divided beyond repair…and is secession a realistic possibility?
- What to watch in Brazil's elections, and why they matter for the balance of power

Discern the signs of the times, vote your convictions, and leave the rest in God's hands!

Your family schedule is a statement about what matters most in your life. God has given us a tremendous gift in time – and everyone uses it for the things they believe to be the most important. 

Kevin Swanson, Todd Strawser, and Danny Craig talk about how to evaluate your schedule, and what it says about your goals, your objectives, and your reason for living. They discuss:

- Is “me time” a Christian idea, and if not, does that mean we can never have time alone?
- How much time should you spend on your own projects, vs your wife’s priorities, or your kids?
- Are you spending too much time on work…and if so, how can you redeem it without becoming less productive?
- Where is the balance with entertainment vs everything else that needs to happen – plus, should you do family worship on vacation?
- When to stick to a schedule…when to reassess and readjust…and how to be “interruptable.”

Let’s redeem the time, for the days are evil!

Research from David Reardon shows that 60% of post-abortive women would have chosen life, if they’d had the emotional and financial support they needed at the time.

Adam McManus speaks with Autumn Christensen of Her PLAN about the opportunity to save 660,000 lives per year without the need for law change. They discuss:

- How nearly 70% of post-abortive women say that abortion is inconsistent with their values and beliefs
- The fear that culture conditions into women, that they can’t be a good mom – which creates systemic pressure to abort
- How pregnancy often isn’t the real problem, but rather the circumstances around it
- The pro-life safety net that you have never heard of, featuring over 8,000 providers
- How men, women, and kids can help in their local areas in ways you might not expect – plus a resource to easily match you with actual needs in your own community

Take the quick quiz at https://herplan.org to see how you can contribute to the pro-life safety net.

Taking a position on truth is pretty unpopular today, but there are still some who have the courage to do it in the public forum. Dr. James White is one of the nation's most active Christian apologists and debaters, having debated atheists, Muslims, etc. over the last twenty years. Here, Kevin Swanson interacts with James on how to engage the battle in the dangerous war of ideas—with meekness and fear.

Many people claim to have “no creed but Christ,” yet when you ask them what they believe, you discover nothing but cliches like “let go and let God.”

Kevin Swanson talks with Jack Lee from the Chorus in the Chaos podcast about the triteness of modern Christianity, and why people are so eager to trivialize the doctrines of Scripture. They look at the big cliches, and ask if the apostles ever said anything like that:

- “Christianity is a relationship, not a religion” – why this ironically distorts people’s relationship with God so badly that it leads them to hell
- “Just because it’s in a garage doesn’t make it a car, and just because you’re in a church doesn’t make you a Christian” – but is it possible to be a Christian WITHOUT being in a church?
- “Ask Jesus into your heart” – does Jesus want to live in our ugly, wicked hearts, and did the apostles ever preach this way?
- “God has a wonderful plan for your life” – really, what is it?
- “Once saved, always saved” – how does that square with salvation as a resurrection to a new creation, if you’re still living in sin?

Understanding the gospel is simple. But reducing the complexities of the Bible to coffee-cup phrases is really dangerous.

In 1990, the US was eight times more powerful than China; today China is 33% more powerful than the US. How can we rebuild the nation?

- The positive and negative duties of dominion, discovering, innovating, producing, building, making new gains – and preserving it over time
- Why so many Christians make so little money
- The difficulty of working in highly specialized positions – and how to be productive if you’re stuck in a “zombie job”
- Why intelligent risk is vital to enjoying a fruitful life, and how to challenge kids of all ages to take risks
- Three main ways to radically increase income
- How to avoid your kids turning into Paris Hilton if you succeed in becoming wealthy
