The US Supreme Court turned the decision on abortion back over to the people in the respective states with the reversal of Roe v. Wade. America is failing the test. We have failed to achieve 6 pro-life initiatives or referendums so far, involving elections in Kentucky, Kansas, Wisconsin, and Montana. Wisconsin's vote on the Supreme Court justice was a landslide this week, in strong favor of abortion (in the ballot box). Kevin Swanson estimates that there are about 6 pro-life states left. It’s hard to believe the pro-life position will survive at a national level, given the spirit of the electorate. Has a nation ever reversed course when it has gone this far down the pike? We do a survey of history on this. 

For the first time in modern history, the majority of Americans are abandoning the idea that college is the key to success. It turns out success has far more to do with life experience, good mentorship, and the development of character and faith, than it does with endless ventures into forming a wayward knowledge built up on humanist reason. The Democrat-to-Republican ratio among college professors is now a whopping 8.5 to 1, and among younger professors 10.5 to 1, and among female professors 16.4 to 1. Why are colleges so liberal? And why do red-state parents keep sending their kids to blue-city colleges?

Can Christians engage their communities? How can they do this? Is it possible to be salt and light, and offer a preserving element of common grace in a local community by owning and controlling a small-town newspaper? How does a Christian report the truth of the matter, if the truth is defined as God defines it? Kevin Swanson speaks with his brother concerning his 30-year venture into journalism.

Amidst the political wrangling, the immoral chaos, the absence of much justice in the courts, and the general craziness of religious opinions about everything, here we try to make biblical and rational sense of the indictment of the former president of the United States. Are Republicans and conservative Christians a bunch of hypocrites, as one meme-er is want to say? It's a good question, and we take it up here.

The transgenderism cult appears to be taking over the world right now, with all of its attendant psychological disorders, frenzy, insanity, and violence. What is this thing, and where did it start up in the modern world? We begin in Germany in the 1890s, and discover the first transgender surgery in 1930, and then the first child taken up into it in 1987 (in Holland). Germany is the breeding ground for the frenzy, insanity, and violence that ends up in two world wars. But what will it produce for the world now that the same ideologies are taking over the whole developed world?

The leading evangelical voices in the world today are man like Brian Houston, who formed Hillsong. Houston is fighting a DUI charge in California, while dealing with allegations of debauchery relating to his behavior in the church. Four of the top 10 worship songs for this generation belong to Hillsong. But what makes for such a powerless Christianity? And, what were those prerequisites for leadership in the church as laid down in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1? But could the problem be more fundamental than this? Nothing is more abominable in worship than the displacement of the glory of God with the aggrandizement of man by showmanship, celebrity preachers, and musical performance. Is this the end for star pastors?

The cultural divide in America is increasingly severe and now erupting in senseless violence at a Christian school in Nashville. School violence has always existed, but the problem is twenty-times worse today than it was during the 1950s. Sexual anarchy and gender anarchy will give birth to other forms of anarchy. Child killing in the womb gives birth to other forms of child killings. There is also an embitterment towards the Christian faith that arises among apostates who leave the faith, which heightens the angst and egregiousness of these criminal actions.

We talk about discipleship. But, not many have done it for forty years with the sort of results that Jim Stump has seen. He's not a mega-church pastor. He's not a radio personality. For decades now, he has discipled young men at Stanford from a restaurant table, fourth from the window in the back. And, hundreds of young men have gone out and discipled others, who have discipled others. . . . And that's the power of One on One. This may be the most powerful interview we've conducted on this radio program!

Witchcraft is on the rise in the Western world—it’s affecting Western nations now more than ever before. There were about 8,000 witches in America in 1990. According to a recent study, there are now 1.5 million in the US today. On this edition of Generations, Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack address the topic of witchcraft and the spiritual fall of America.

The famous atheist Richard Dawkins lost his Humanist of the Year Award for his lack of self-consistency to the doctrine of humanist autonomy and the LGBT insanity. He's not the only one blackballed by the establishment. Christians have been pushed out of Arizona public schools because they tout a worldview that opposes all the rest, but especially the worldview of the US Governments. Will Christians be more and more cut out of civil society?
