In the Market with Janet Parshall
July 03, 2024
Hour 1: When Angels Fight
When she was fifteen years old, Leslie King ran away from an abusive home, looking for a better life and longing for real love. What she found instead was a man who wooed her just long enough to trap her in a life of prostitution. She became one of the many thousands of trafficked individuals in the United States today, a number that continues to rise-in the biggest cities and in the most idyllic towns. Join us to hear her incredible story and learn how God took her painful journey and used it to minister to those who have been used, abused and discarded.
Hour 2: Why I am Not An Atheist
Join us today to hear the story of how a chain-smoking, tattoo-covered, sexually promiscuous, suicidally depressed, atheist Jew was transformed by Jesus. Listen as she explains her spiritual journey; the intellectual debates with herself as she questioned atheism, new age spirituality, God, and Jesus; and her metamorphosis from a stiff-necked cynic to a joyful new creation.
