Description

Today’s family and social-economic systems are failing and will continue to do so unless the collective people regain a proper understanding of reality. Generations Radio, with Kevin Swanson, presents that proper understanding of reality by speaking to the issues people face in the modern day from the perspective of a biblical worldview.

Whose Side is God On?

Whose Side is God On?

2024-10-1628:19

There are roughly 5.4 billion people represented in nations today that support traditional marriage.  There are 1.4 billion people represented in nations today that oppose traditional marriage.  If there was a world war between west and east, who would win?  Whose side is God on? One thing is for sure. Nations cannot destroy marriage and the family and hope to have a civilization a hundred years from now. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Supreme Court rejected a religious liberty/COVID case, Religiously unaffiliated Americans on the rise, 69% of adults have little trust in mass media) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Increasingly, evangelical pastors are advising the use of foul language and obscene gestures. Is this ignorance concerning the symbolic connotations communicated in human language? Or, is it that there is little or no fear of God before their eyes? Why is it wrong to say “Gosh darn it all to heck?” And, how does cursing differ from the imprecatory psalms? These are highly significant discussion items in an increasingly apostate age. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (NASA’s Europa Clipper looking for life on Jupiter’s moon, Praying at home may be illegal under Scottish abortion law, Taiwan recording 280 homosexual faux marriage per month) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
For the first time in history women are leading the leaving of the faith. For the last 15 years, they have led the American apostasy on the pop-culture scene, and they have led in the popular evangelly fish book market. Almost all top-ten Christian books have been authored by women for the last 10 years or so, paving the exit ramps off the highway of orthodoxy for other women. But young men are going back to church. They want to hear the hard truths, and they are staying in discipleship. Good signs for the church in the 21st Century. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Kamala would have done nothing differently than Biden; David Brainerd, missionary to Indians, an inspiration) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Disney is leading the culture again with the two largest blockbusters of the year, Inside Out 2 and Dead Pool 3 — both heavy queer-coding, gender fluid-affirming revolutionary cultural expressions. How much of Hollywood is effeminate, gender-fluid, and queer coded? More than you could imagine. But then again, so was the Globe Theater in 1590.  The Puritans were as concerned about the theater then as we are now. Not much has changed. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (China & North Korea partner to persecute Christians; 60 Minutes asks Kamala about inflation, unfair nomination, & flip flops; Texas couple erects cross in yard, invites people to pray) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Political prisoners are typically clapped in the clink by communist governments on the charge of some legal technicality. That's precisely what is happening in the good old USS of A. Pro-lifers, Christian homeschool dads, and election questioners are getting 3-9 years in prison these days. Here's yet another story taken from a highly reliable source we need to share with our listening audience. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Barna: 32 million Christians unlikely to vote in election, William Tyndale’s momentous life & death, Iranian Christian released from prison 5 years early) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
We may appreciate the trivium, or a careful study of history, or the great literature. . . but is it a Christ-centered history or a man-centered history? Is it pagan literature, or Christian literature? These are extremely critical questions with which Christian parents must grapple. Their children’s souls are at stake in regards to these matters. Here are some cautionary notes concerning classical education. The reintroduction of Greek humanism into the universities in the 1300s killed the faith once. Then again, the right wing and left wing enlightenment turned back to the Greeks in the 1700s — killing the Protestant faith. The same thing is happening today with a return to a humanist epistemology and ethic. Bottom line, here isn’t nearly enough careful worldview discernment. .  . among those classical teachers who have had their training in liberal arts from public schools, non-discerning Christian schools, and left-wing Christian liberal arts colleges. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Supreme Court: Biden cannot force ER doctors to murder babies, 6% of U.S. students are homeschooled now, 18 Christians arrested in India for evangelism) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Kevin Swanson and Adam McManus compare European and American politics. Many European countries are significantly post-Christian, and America is starting to follow. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (How one NC church is helping hurricane victims, Fools run amuck in England, New Russian law bans adoptions to pro-trans countries) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Homeschooling has expanded exponentially in the nation of South Africa where almost everything else has broken down. The enemy is responding by extending state control over the one thing that is working. How will Christian homeschoolers and Christian schools respond to added state regulations of this growing movement? This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Melania Trump champions abortion in new memoir, Biden unsure which storm people have just endured, DeSantis sent Florida Guard to North Carolina) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
Another pastor in Dallas is removed from his position because of an “inappropriate relationship.” One blogster counts 16 scandals in Dallas churches just this year, including 4-5 high profiles. What is the Spirit saying to the churches? Where are the honest confessions, the humble repentances, and the churches still with some integrity to them? When it comes to inappropriate relationships, what does this mean? Inappropriate in the eyes of the world? Inappropriate in the eyes of the church? Inappropriate in the eyes of the civil magistrate? Was there a civil law broken in this matter? Or was this a thing that was inappropriate in the eyes of God?
Ray Ortlund and the leftist side of evangelicalism is sometimes Kamala Harris, but never Trump. Everybody picks their ethical systems and a basis by which to judge one thing as better than the others. That’s why evangelicals are going for Kamala Harris . . . wrong ethical system.
Make Disciples

Make Disciples

THE FORGE, the newest Christian movie from the Kendrick Brothers, is a powerful illustration and reminder that discipleship matters! Guest host Adam McManus interviews Alex Kendrick, the co-writer and director of the film, which has already made $27 million domestically since August 23rd. At its height, THE FORGE was shown in 1,900 theaters. Still in 700 theaters today, go to the website www.TheForgeMovie.com to find out where it is playing near you. In the film, Isaiah Wright, played by Aspen Kennedy, has some growing up to do. A year out of high school with no plans for his future, Isaiah is challenged by his single mom and a successful businessman to start charting a better course for his life. Through the Biblical discipleship from his new mentor, prayers of his mother and a prayer warrior named Miss Clara, Isaiah begins to discover God’s purpose for his life.  Most Bible-believing Christians know the Great Commission by memory. It records the last words of Jesus during His earthly ministry found in Mathew 28:18-20. Jesus said, “All authority in Heaven and on Earth has been given to Me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Notice it doesn’t say, “Go and make converts.”  While the movie inspires Christians to make disciples, their companion book, Devoted To Jesus, equips believers to disciple others by working through the 52 short chapters in 52 weeks with anyone who needs to grow in faith. Like the special ceremony for young men in THE FORGE, McManus shares the story of the special Manhood Celebration ceremony he organized for his son Honor’s 13th birthday.  Much like the Jewish families launch their sons into adulthood through a bar mitzvah, McManus believes Evangelical parents should be more intentional. Rob Dempsey, Morning Show Host of His Radio, said, “THE FORGE masterfully weaves together themes of forgiveness, mentorship, and the hope of the Gospel, creating an entertaining and impactful film that leaves a lasting impression.” Watch the trailer of THE FORGE.
Pastor vs. Drag Queens

Pastor vs. Drag Queens

2024-10-01--:--

When Pastor Derek Reimer, 38, heard that Drag Queens had been invited to read perverted propaganda  to infants and children up to the age of eight at the Seton Library in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, he was infuriated.   The children’s innocence was worthy of protection. And Deuteronomy 22:5 says, “A woman shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the Lord your God.” So, in February 2023, he walked to the front of the room and Biblically challenged the parents to stop listening to the pervert. Within seconds, angry liberal fathers grabbed him and threw him around like a rag doll. In an ironic and shocking twist, Reimer was later arrested at his home, but the parents who had assaulted him were not held accountable.  Reimer tells guest host Adam McManus that he “was obedient to God in protecting children and exposing darkness.” Since rededicating his life to Christ nine years ago, he has been animated by Ephesians 5:11 which says, “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.” Thankfully, on Tuesday, September 24th, Judge Allan Fradsham ruled that Reimer is not guilty of any criminal offense of the February 2023 incident, reports LifeSiteNews.com. However, because of his subsequent objections to other Drag Queen Story Hours throughout Calgary, he was arrested two additional times–once when he was 162 meters away from the library during a Drag Queen Story Hour and another time when he was a mile away street preaching against such perversion. He has served a total of 43 days in jail. Rebel News, a freedom-loving website of journalists, has covered this story extensively. In fact, they have helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to help cover Reimer’s legal expenses through www.SavePastorDerek.com. You can help as he faces one final trial.
When Kamala Harris was asked on the Oprah Winfrey  infomercial whether she would secure the border if elected as president, she said two things. As California Attorney General, she prosecuted transnational groups for the trafficking of guns, drugs, and human beings. As Vice President, she advocated for the passage of the Biden Border Bill which would have placed 1,500 additional Border Patrol agents on the ground. She sounds like a Republican, as she moves center to appeal to law-and-order Americans.   But, as Jeremy Beck, Vice President of Initiatives for NumbersUSA.com, points out in his appearance with guest host Adam McManus, Kamala, the designated Border Czar, certainly hasn’t lifted a finger for the last four years to stem the tide of transnational groups who have been trafficking copious amounts of guns, drugs, and human beings across our southern border. Secondly, the reason why common sense prevailed in regards to the defeat of Biden’s sham of a border bill, is that it would have, for the first time, actually mandated a minimum number of 500,000 illegal aliens to be given admittance into America. Plus, the 1,500 additional Border Patrol agents would not have been tasked with preventing illegals from crossing our southern border, but with facilitating their illegal entrance across the border.
3 Abortion Lies

3 Abortion Lies

2024-09-27--:--

In the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, there were three lies told about abortion. Guest host Adam McManus addresses all three with Sue Liebel, the State Affairs Director for Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. Plus, you’ll hear the audio clips of all three. LIE #1: Abortions don’t happen in the ninth month of pregnancy. Kamala Harris falsely claimed, “Nowhere in America is a woman carrying a pregnancy to term and asking for an abortion. That is not happening; it’s insulting to the women of America.” Truth: Abortion is legal for any reason up to birth in ten states and DC. Abortion is legal through nine months of pregnancy for any reason in ten states plus D.C. Those states are Alaska, California, Colorado, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, and Vermont. LIE #2: There is no state in which “abortion after birth” is legal. At one point, debate moderator Linsey Davis inappropriately jumped in to debate Trump, telling him, “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born.” She is incorrect! Truth: “After-birth abortion” or infanticide does occur, and 15 states allow it. These 15 states allow infanticide: Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Utah, and Vermont. That’s why Marjorie Dannenfelser, the President of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, sent a letter to ABC demanding a correction. In 2019, then-Senator Kamala Harris voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires abortionists to provide potentially lifesaving care to babies born during botched abortions.  In addition, just because it is illegal in many states to kill a newborn baby does not mean it is not happening and that abortion advocates don’t support it. Pennsylvania abortionist Kermit Gosnell is in prison currently for actively killing babies who survived his abortion procedures. LIE #3: Pro-life laws make it “criminal” for a doctor to provide health care for women who have miscarriages. During the debate, Kamala Harris falsely claimed, “Over 20 Trump abortion bans make it criminal for a doctor or nurse to provide health care. In one state, it provides prison for life. I have talked with women around our country. You want to talk about, ‘This is what people wanted?’ Pregnant women who want to carry a pregnancy to term suffering from a miscarriage being denied care in an emergency room because the health care providers are afraid they might go to jail and she’s bleeding out in a car in the parking lot. She didn’t want that. Her husband didn’t want that.” Truth: No pro-life law prohibits legitimate health care.
On Sunday, September 15th, former President Donald Trump was targeted in a second assassination attempt on the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. It happened  just nine weeks after the Republican presidential nominee survived another attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania. Guest host Adam McManus talks with Michael Letts, a former law enforcement officer who worked with the Reagan Secret Service team, and founder of InVestUSA.org, which provides bullet-proof vests to police. They talk about Ryan Routh, age 58, who hid out on the Trump Golf Club for 12 hours waiting to assassinate the former president. How did he know that Trump would be there since it was not published on his public schedule? How did he avoid discovery until the very last moment? And they also address the many security problems which enabled Matthew Crooks, age 20, to come within an inch of successfully assassinating Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13th. Is there a mole inside the Secret Service?
Thousands of pagers detonated across Lebanon last Tuesday, injuring nearly 3,000 and killing 12 people. The attack targeted fighters with the terrorist group Hezbollah but also killed civilians.  Then, in a second wave of attacks, hand-held radios detonated across Lebanon on September 18th, killing 14 people and injuring over 450.  Guest host Adam McManus interviews Pastor Mark Biltz, a Messianic Jew, the author of God's Day Timer: The Key to Unlocking God's Time Clock, and founder of El Shaddai Ministries in Washington State. Biltz says Israel’s Mossad, the Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, is the most likely and suspected source of the explosions, though they are not talking. The larger issue is that many see the source as obviously being Israel. Once that perception takes hold, it then becomes Hezbollah’s move and, by extension, Iran’s move.  In this shocking and unprecedented event, the fabric of modern warfare has been torn wide open. Thousands of Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon found themselves on the wrong side of a deadly technological twist, as pagers—devices largely considered relics of the past—erupted in a series of devastating explosions. Within just a few hours, these seemingly innocuous gadgets turned into instruments of retribution.
Seeds in the Cracks

Seeds in the Cracks

Relationship. Discipleship. Families being together, being nurtured, even in the midst of some of the most difficult times in recent history. This is what we see in families across the world who are discipling their children in the midst of war and government opposition. They provide a shining light of home education compared to the backdrop of brokenness, decimation, and isolation of the post-Christian wasteland of the West. We discuss the challenges facing the international homeschooling community and inspiring stories of faith from nations around the world on this edition of the program.
On this edition of the program, Kevin Swanson discusses the history of Christian homeschool organizations and the ideology of home education with Brian Ray. Is it the state's responsibility to fund the education of our children, or is this the job of the family? 
The media has always had a tremendous impact on the formation of public opinion . . . but it at least tried to be unbiased in its reporting in times past. So what do we do when it becomes as blatantly biased as it is today? Is there an objective, absolute standard to use when interpreting the events around us? Or is it the one who yells “Heretic!” the loudest who wins in the end? We review some of the basics requirements for good journalism, how to navigate the maze of a thousand opinions, and the need bring God’s standards to bear in the area of the press and current events on this edition of the program.
Ideas have consequences. The Peter Thiels of the world are far more influential in the Republican party than they were 20 years ago, and are setting a new direction for “conservatives.” As we approach the 2024 elections, the major worldviews need to be identified if we’re going to understand the ramifications of the philosophies governing our country today. On this edition of the program, we examine the worldviews behind the two major ruling political parties of the day, Ayn Rand, and Peter Thiel.
