In the Market with Janet Parshall

Hour 1: Outgrowing Dawkins
In his book Outgrowing God, Richard Dawkins purports to demolish the claims of mainstream religion, starting with belief in a Creator. All of life’s big questions can apparently be answered by science. But does he even understand what he rejects? Our guest’s answer is a resounding ‘No’. The high priest of New Atheism quite literally doesn’t know what he’s talking about, because the deity he rejects is a childish parody. From this flow many straw man arguments. Our guest will offer incisive rebuttals and positive suggestions for advancing an often-sterile debate.
Hour 2: The Word On The Street
If you’re ready for something more exhilarating than skydiving, arguably more scary, and infinitely more productive, try preaching the gospel in public. Join us to learn how to winsomely, clearly and boldly share your faith – out loud. Discover what it means to hear the Gospel in a one-on-one setting and step into this high calling.
