Hour 1: The World is Changing
Join us this hour as we get an insider’s perspective on what is happening in Iran, both politically and spiritually. Is Iran becoming a Christian nation? Then, a new study in the research journal Environmental Hazards shows that the number of natural disasters is declining globally, contrary to endless media warnings about human-caused climate change causing more disasters. We will talk scientific facts versus science fiction.
Hour 2: Entertainment and Ethics
This hour we look at some of the stories making headlines before finding out how we can pray specifically for those who serve in the entertainment industry. Learn how you can join a global prayer movement for this huge group of influencers. We close out the hour by discussing what is happening in the so-called ‘right-to-die’ movement and why this heinous idea continues to gain popularity. Join us to hone your critical and biblical thinking skills.
