In the Market with Janet Parshall
April 18, 2024
Hour 1: Tactics
In a world that continually challenges Christian truth, our guest will demonstrate how to initiate conversations effortlessly; present beliefs clearly, cleverly, and persuasively; expose faulty thinking graciously and effectively; manage a dialogue skillfully; and maintain an engaging, disarming style even under attack. Join us to learn how to better “contend” for the faith.
Hour 2: Why We Still Believe
The West has become permeated with a culture that doesn't 'do' God. Many people assert that we have progressed, while Christians are still clinging to outdated ideas. Our guest today will take a look at the contemporary attacks on Christianity and marriage, showing why we can and must' continue in the faith' (Col.1:23).
