How to Launch a Purpose-Driven Generation – Only 2% of Gen Z Matches Employer Values

If money is a tool, what's the project? And how can we use it to honor God? This episode defines a family vision, then shows how budgets, savings, and investments align with gifts, faith, and love. Train children early, avoid consumerism, and build multiple streams that serve people and the kingdom.

A clash of values has made Gen Z "hard to hire," but the deeper crisis is meaning. Materialism bred burnout; escapism bred emptiness. What works? Biblical purpose, relational mentorship, and workplaces led by love—not mere incentives. We show how families, churches, and managers can form character, steward gifts, and turn drifting teens into dependable adults who build rather than bail.

Should Christians recite the Pledge—and what exactly are we pledging? Kevin and Josh trace the pledge's history, weigh "honor the emperor" (1 Pet. 2:17) alongside "we must obey God rather than men," and unpack whether "under God," "indivisible," and "liberty and justice for all" are descriptions or aspirations. The takeaway: apply Romans 14 liberty to Romans 13 duty—fear God first, then honor where honor is due.

What is worship—and why do the Psalms belong at the center of it? Kevin Swanson talks with Pastor Jonathan Landry Cruz about the Bible's own songbook, how to "serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling," and why corporate worship breathes life into private and family worship. Steps for families and pastors include pre-reading texts, learning the week's hymns at home, and giving children confessional anchors they can say by heart. We look at lament, joy, and spiritual formation through Psalm-singing, and point you to practical resources for your church and household.

Abortion "reform" sounds civilized—until you run the thought experiment. If a mother hires an assassin to kill her 9-month-old outside the womb, would we certify the killer, add counseling, or simply cut a check? In this episode we expose the logic of incrementalism, call pastors to preach the whole counsel of God, and press for real justice under Romans 13. Defund the blood money. Prosecute the crime. Repentance, not half-measures, is how nations heal.

Is peace with in-laws even possible? Yes—when the gospel leads. The dads discuss transferring headship, giving counsel without grabbing the wheel, planning connection on purpose, and responding to dysfunction with service, humility, and help from church elders. Hopeful, honest, and loaded with field-tested practices for families with married children.

UNESCO's report was written from a desk—then aims to rule your desk at home. Without visiting real homeschools, the UN prescribes searches and standards that shift authority from parents to bureaucrats. We highlight legal wins that block home inspections and outline a strategy for nations to recognize the right to homeschool without surrendering it to UN ideology.

Is Halloween redeemable—or are we simply cutting the ears off the Playboy bunny and calling the logo "clean"? This conversation unpacks why symbols aren't neutral, how 1 Corinthians 10 guides conscience, and how families can replace "no" with a richer "yes." The invitation: celebrate saints, not séances—life, not death.

Why do we keep losing? Because we surrender the principle, dilute the language, and comfort our consciences with body bags and disposal kits. Abolition says: apply the same laws that protect born people to the unborn—no partiality. Bradley Pierce joins us to walk through the theology, the numbers, and the needed courage to love both mother and child with justice and truth.

When Vivek Ramaswamy's Hindu faith meets America's post-Christian confusion, the collision reveals just how far we've drifted from truth. Hinduism denies moral absolutes, and modern America does too—just in different language. From karma to "follow your heart," the worldview is the same: man is god. Until we recover a biblical foundation, our politics will keep reflecting our idolatry.
