In the Market with Janet Parshall
June 12, 2024
Hour 1: Resilient and Redeemed
God cares deeply about you and your mental health. Our guest, an author and mental health advocate, has battled depression and suicidality his entire adult life. Even coming to Christ didn't change this, which is something many fellow Christians don't seem to understand. He still had to face the grief of unrelenting illness, the shame of struggling, and the pain of poor guidance. He will join us to share how he overcame these challenges and will invite you to do the same--no matter your diagnosis. God is still there, even in the darkest of places.
Hour 2: Sober Cycle
Join us as our guest holds nothing back as she details her secret double life as an addicted follower of Christ. Recounting the many failed attempts to reach sobriety the hard way, she will offer hope to others without judgment, assuring fellow believers that redemption and healing can be found without riding a bike for thousands of miles. Addictions-whether it is drinking, excessive spending, prescription drugs, gambling, social media, or being entangled in sexual sin can be found in every walk of life, but you too can ride your way to freedom and find a deeply satisfying partner in Jesus to help you get there.
