The Generations Radio Program

An NBC-WSJ poll finds that the younger generation is shifting away from an appreciation for country, family, children, and church.  So what’s left?  Self, work, money, play, and no kids.  Also, tolerance is the last value left.  What is this?  We struggle for a definition, and discover that it really doesn’t mean much of anything at all.  Why has family and love for children faded?  Abortion and latch key kid ratios went sky high between 1975 and 1995. 

There is a strong sense with modern man that a gigantic volcano or a big earthquake is about to happen. Everybody knows that judgment is coming.  However, modern man prefers chance cataclysms that will destroy the whole world as against the judgment of a righteous, holy, personal God. He would rather have a meaningless existence in a fatalistic universe than face a God who holds him responsible for his moral behavior. We also list the most evil cities in America.

Conservative and Christian leaders are exhorting parents to get their children out of public schools now. But Christian leaders were saying the same thing in the 1950s. Will the pastors and the parents from Christian homes act now? We must not just react, however, we must embrace a thoroughly Christian discipleship for our children.

Will the $10 billion settlements against pharmaceuticals solve the opioid death crisis in America?  How did the $1 trillion war on drugs yield anything, besides a 17.5 fold increase on drug deaths?  We contact Satan’s salvation plan and the state salvation plan to God’s powerful, effectual, gracious, real salvation through Christ.

America has received the most God-blessed, self-consciously Biblical heritage of any nation in history. Our country was born out of the ripest fruits of the 16th century reformation.

And yet . . . we are no longer the godly nation we once were. Humanism has slowly dominated our families, government and social institutions over the last 150 years. Will we return to the biblical foundation that made us great, or will we go the way of the modern empires of Britain, Spain, and France?

Why are the Ivy League schools offering "The Economics of Star Trek" and "History of Comics," and turning up with a F-score on national academic surveys? Schools like Colorado Christian University, Regent University, and Thomas Aquinas College get A scores? The purpose of college is less and less for preparing young people for life and for work. The worldview is self-consciously humanist and more self-consistently destructive. What is of essence is that young people have been indoctrinated in the core religious subjects of Marxism, Egalitarinaism, Class Envy, Radical Humanism, Self-Determination, and Self-Sexual Determination.

If you were taking the Bible seriously, how would you make 1 Timothy 2:9-15 non-offensive at your local semi-liberal Christian college? Should you just go ahead and throw the whole Bible out, and start over on creating a more acceptable type of religion? We take a look at the controversy surrounding complementarianism, the accusations of misogyny. . .and find the controversy itself is indicative of a whole wrong way of looking at. . . well. . . everything.

There are the good presidents and the bad presidents in history — but it can be difficult to identify the best presidents. That’s because there are those who say they are Christians but have bad policies, and there are those who don’t profess to be Christians with good policies. Shall we prefer a profession of faith or fruit. . . or both?

The high-profile sex-criminal Jeffrey Epstein seemed a little upset that "criminalizing sex with teenage girls was a cultural aberration." Indeed, the pagan world in Mesopotamia, Egypt, India,and the Muslim world was saturated in slavery, sexual coercion, and pre-marital fornication. It was a nightmarish world. There is no other word for it. But, when Christ came, He turned on the lights and transformed the way the world looks at marriage and sexual purity. We trace the laws of consent to directly after the Magna Carta and King John’s coercion of the daughters of the lords. It was the Christian world that changed everything - no thanks to the Muslims, the Hindus, the Buddhists, and everybody else.

If the BBC and the Discovery Channel believed in God, how would this change their view of the world and their productions on the wonders of nature? What is the explanation for the ugliness, the cuteness, the wisdom, the intricacies, the variety, the power, and the beauty of the animal world? Why are their poisonous snakes, predators, and parasites in the world around us? Here is a discussion on how we might restore a sense of wonder and purpose, and an eschatological hope into our study of nature all around us.
