In the Market with Janet Parshall
December 18, 2024
Hour 1: Freedom and Liberty
This hour we look at how crime and poverty can truly be solved in this country. Bob Woodson knows from decades of experience that "mediating institutions" -- churches, charities, neighborhood groups -- are the closest to the problems of local poverty and crime, and thus yield the best solutions. Then Ed Cannon, from FEBC, will tell us how Christians are persevering under the heavy boot of Communism in China. Get ready to lengthen your prayer list!
Hour 2: The Anointed One
Discover parables that ignited minds, miracles that defied logic, and unyielding love that knows no bounds. As you walk alongside Jesus through His joys and trials, you'll find your own perspectives challenged, your heart yearning, and your spirit awakening to the boundless possibilities of love, forgiveness, and redemption. Join us to hear the amazing but true record of the Man who changed the world, the Person about whom millions have strong opinions but little knowledge. From His humble beginnings in Bethlehem to His time-transcending teachings, the Anointed One changed the world forever
IN THIS EPISODE
Robert Woodson, Sr
Robert L. Woodson, Sr. founded the Woodson Center in 1981 to help residents of low-income neighborhoods address the problems of their communities. A former civil rights activist, he has headed the National Urban League Department of Criminal Justice, and has been a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Foundation for Public Policy Research. Referred to by many as “godfather” of the neighborhood empowerment movement, for more than four decades, Woodson has had a special concern for the problems of youth. In response to an epidemic of youth violence that has afflicted urban, rural and suburban neighborhoods alike, Woodson has focused much of the Woodson Center’s activities on an initiative to establish Violence-Free Zones in troubled schools and neighborhoods throughout the nation. He is an early MacArthur “genius” awardee and the recipient of the 2008 Bradley Prize, the Presidential Citizens Award, and a 2008 Social Entrepreneurship Award from the Manhattan Institute.
