Homelessness is a huge problem in California.  Tent cities are taking over the streets of major metropolitan areas.  According to the 2020 Homeless Assessment Report, more than 50% of the US's homeless are in California.  Can anything be done to actually address the root causes of this growing crisis?  And for that matter, what ARE the root causes?  Are the homeless just average people, down on their luck, who can't catch a break? In this episode of the Educate For Life Show, Kevin talks to Bill Wells, the Mayor of El Cajon.  Bill has a lot of experience dealing with the homeless in his city, and trying to offer them a way to get off the street.  He shares his experiences to answer the toughest questions about this issue: what really causes homelessness?  Does California's government really want the problem to decrease?  Is it a good thing for churches to go to homeless encampments and offer free resources?  Tune in for an informed discussion on all that and more.

Is the Bible a historical text, or a book of myths?  This is not a matter of opinion; the answer is based on the facts, and the facts are uncovered by the science of archaeology. Today on Educate For Life Radio, Kevin talks with Dr. Titus Kennedy, author of Unearthing The Bible: 101 Archaeological Discoveries that Bring the Bible to Life.  Kevin and Dr. Kennedy discuss how he got into archaeology, what the science has to say about the Bible's accuracy, and whether or not Christians have to fear the extreme claims made by skeptics (such as "Jesus did not exist").

“Scientists study the world as it is, engineers create the world that never has been.”  – Theodore von Kármán Christians love to talk about Creation Science, but maybe we should focus a little more on Creation Engineering!  We already know that God designed everything in our universe, but design is only one step in the process of bringing something new into being.  God is the Master Engineer who created life to be both beautiful in form, and serve a wide variety of functions. Today Kevin's guest is Mark Horstemeyer, Dean of Liberty University's School of Engineering.  In the world of engineering, Mark has done it all: earning his Masters' and Doctoral degrees, researching, publishing scientific papers, lecturing, teaching at universities, and even creating companies based on his own designs.  As an expert on what it takes for an engineer to "create the world that never was", Mark explains how we can know that life was not an accident; it was developed by the Master Engineer.

207 Life Was Clearly Engineered — With Mark Horstemeyer

The government takes away a large percentage of your income at gunpoint (it's called taxation) and spends it on public "education".  But in reality, public schools attempt to indoctrinate your kids into certain political ideologies, while leaving them academically unprepared for community college.  If you want a real education for your children, you better be able to afford private school tuition, in addition to what you already pay in taxes to prop up failing public schools!  How is this system just? Michael Alexander is the founder of the California School Choice Foundation.  They are working to get a school choice voter initiative, the Education Freedom Act, on the 2022 ballot.  This initiative will give parents the right to spend their own money on their own children's education in the way that they choose.  They're your kids, and it's your money.  It should be your choice to use it to provide them an education as you see fit.

206 Your Kids, Your Money, Your Choice — with Michael Alexander

How could something called "The Equality Act" possibly be a bad thing?  Unfortunately, this legislation is not about creating true equality under the law for all.  It is actually designed to destroy the legally-protected religious freedoms of those who oppose far left social agendas.  In this episode of the Educate For Life Show, Mark Schneider, founder of Protect Our Kids, explains exactly how the larger attack on American religious freedom is currently being carried out—and what it will take to stop it. A native Californian, Mark spent most of his career in Silicon Valley serving as corporate counsel and in executive positions at several large technology companies before going into private practice as a patent litigator. In response to California’s Proposition 8, which fought to preserve traditional marriage, Mark founded a Salt & Light Ministry at his local church, where he still serves. He received his bachelor of science in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from California Polytechnic University and a Juris Doctor from Trinity Law School. Mark has published law review and many other articles that touch on the intersection of theology and law. He is married with two adult, home-schooled, children.

205 Government Tyranny Disguised as Equality —  with Mark Schneider

Every day, more and more entertainment media is produced for kids and teens to consume.  But a lot of this content contains harmful messaging, designed to undermine traditional values in favor of radical social and political agendas.  How can parents keep up with the constant onslaught of new media so that they can actually tell the difference between what is harmful and what is safe for their kids? Tina Griffin, a former Hollywood actress, has built a reputation as one of the leading Christian experts on popular media. She has traveled globally for the past 20 years, revealing how pop culture and the entertainment industry are glamorizing harmful behaviors without showing the consequences, and how these messages are eroding the foundational development of today’s youth.

You've probably seen her on TV, but Sam Sorbo is more than just an actress: she's also an author, talk show host, educator, wife and mother.  In this episode of the Educate For Life Show, Sam and I discuss the ideas behind her new book, Word For Warriors: Fight Back Against Crazy Socialists and the Toxic Liberal Left. Radical leftists know that if you control the language, you control the conversation.  That is why they have been working to strategically redefine important terms like "racism" and "gender" in our culture.  Sam decided to write the playbook on how to decode this dishonest manipulation of our language, so that you won't be tricked into playing their rigged game.

203 Words For Warriors: Taking Our Language Back — with Sam Sorbo

Are you aware of what your child is being taught in school under the guise of "sex ed"?  Far from providing factual information about human sexuality, Comprehensive Sexuality Education is designed to indoctrinate students into "critical theory," promoting socialism, intersectionality, gender as a social construct, and other political agendas that have no basis in science. Gheorghe Rosca is no stranger to the dangers of socialism: he was born in Communist Romania, where his father was imprisoned for being a Christian.  When he became aware of the agenda being pushed in schools, Gheorghe decided to get actively involved in order to protect his own daughter and other children from this influence.  Gheorghe is the founder of Protect Our Kids, a nonprofit organization that informs parents about what their kids are actually being taught behind closed classroom doors.

201 Is God's creation THOUSANDS or BILLIONS of years old? — with Dr. Hugh Ross

Christians who work in public schools are terrified of speaking up about their beliefs.  They worry that if they say the wrong thing, it will cause backlash or even cost them their job, so many choose to say nothing at all.  But in reality, not only is it acceptable for Christians to talk about their faith at school, in some cases it is required by the curriculum! — provided that they follow the proper guidelines for HOW to discuss it. This week I talked to Eric Buehrer of Gateways To Better Education, an organization that equips public school educators, leaders, parents and students to protect and promote religious and academic freedom regarding the Bible and Christianity.  We were also joined by my friend John Neill, a public school teacher who makes a point of living out his Christian faith on the job.  We discuss what to do and what not to do in terms of discussing religion in public schools.  You won't believe what is possible!  All we need is for Christians to become aware of their rights, so they can, as John puts it, "go the speed limit."

200 Christian Teachers Have More Rights Than They Know – Eric Buehrer

Do you know how old the earth is? Depending on your worldview, you may answer this question differently. According to radio-isotope dating, it is about 4.6 Billion years old. But, according to a Biblical worldview, the earth is much younger. So how does radioisotope dating work? Are there any flaws in the methodology? Does it conclusively prove the earth could not possibly be young? Today on Educate For Life, Kevin is speaking with Dr. Jay Wile. Dr. Jay Wile holds an earned Ph.D. from the University of Rochester in nuclear chemistry. He has presented numerous lectures on the topics of Nuclear Chemistry, Christian Apologetics, Homeschooling, and Creation vs. Evolution. He has published lots of articles on these subjects in nationally recognized journals and has authored or co-authored 13 award-winning science textbooks. He is best known as the author of award-winning elementary, junior, and senior high school science courses including the Science through HisStory, “Discovering Design with…”, and “Exploring Creation with…” series. Having studied nuclear chemistry in detail, Dr. Jay Wile knows many of the ins and outs of how radio-isotope dating. He has witnessed the process of testing samples and then choosing which data points to use from that sample. In other words, he has watched scientists eliminate certain possible ages of a sample simply because it doesn’t make sense to those scientists. To simplify it, scientists are picking the age range of a sample instead of considering all the available data. Tune in for a great episode.

199 Nuclear Chemistry Shows a Young Earth - Dr. Jay L. Wile

California is back in the purple tier because of a rise in Corona Virus cases. That means many restrictions are back in place. Restaurants can only serve meals outside, businesses can only operate at 25% capacity and kids must continue remote learning. What about churches? Where does God fit into these restrictions? Today on Educate For Life, Pastor Jack Hibbs is here to describe how the Church plays a vital role in these troubling times. Pastor Jack Hibbs is passionate about life! This passion comes out of his deep understanding that God, who came to earth in human skin, has through Jesus Christ provided the way, the truth, and the life. Our relationship with God, broken because of our sin, can be restored through Him. Jesus said He came to give us an "abundant" life. That's real life done God's way! Our relationship with Christ and His instructions about the Christian life should impact every area of our being. That's right! God's Word -- the Bible -- speaks to the real life issues we all face. Depression. Joy. Suffering. Forgiveness. Peace. Fulfillment. Tune in for a great show of hope! This episode first aired on Nov 20th, 2020 Educate For Life with Kevin Conover airs Sundays 10-11pm.
