In the Market with Janet Parshall

Hour 1: Van Gogh Has A Broken Heart
Did you know that:
· Vincent van Gogh's attempt to start an artist's colony with Paul Gauguin lasted only nine weeks, ending in his infamous "ear episode"?
· Pablo Picasso was a prime suspect in the disappearance of the Mona Lisa?
· Artemisia Gentileschi was tortured with thumbscrews to verify her testimony at her own rapist's trial?
· Norman Rockwell's critics said his work would never be accepted as "high art"--and he agreed?
These stories--and many more--shaped the work these artists left behind. In their art are lessons common to the human experience about the wonder and struggle of being alive: dreams lost, perspectives changed, and humility derived through suffering.
Russ Ramsey will join us to dig into these artists' stories to mine the transcendent beauty and hard lessons we can take from their masterpieces and their lives. Each story from some of history's most celebrated artists applies the beauty of the Gospel in a way that speaks to the suffering and hope we all face.
Hour 2: The Non-Prophet's Guide to Heaven
How do we know who goes to heaven? Will we have bodies? Will we recognize other people, such as our friends and family? What does having a future in heaven mean for us while still here on earth? Author and illustrator Todd Hampson will join us to answer these questions and many more with faithful explorations of what Scripture reveals about heaven. Our goal is to help transform your understanding of heaven and the afterlife which will energize you to live more boldly in the present.
