What do you do when your life has been impacted by the trauma of violence and violation? On In The Market with Janet Parshall we shared the personal story of a woman who has walked this path and along the way learned some powerful lessons about leaning on God to move us through traumatic events and along the way strengthen our faith and trust in the Lord. You may not hear it every night on the evening news or on your news feeds but there is a continued, concerted effort to undermine the foundations of this nation and institute tyrannical ideas that compromise or even remove our religious freedoms. We spoke to a lawyer who shared the sobering facts with us and told us why the church must take a stand to defend religious freedoms and what will happen if no one does. A mother took us behind the curtain of her own journey to share how she learned to pray for her prodigal children, how to recognize the dark forces in society that draw them away from faith and the ultimate importance of putting our full trust in the Lord to bring those children back to Him. Darwin’s seminal work has been the accepted text on the origin of all the species on the earth. But what was cutting edge science in 1859 is far from the science of our day. Our guest used modern science to put Darwin’s truths to the test and demonstrate once again that the word of the Creator of all life still holds the final verdict of life on this great, good earth. There is so much news coming at us these days that it can be very difficult to discern the truth from the rhetoric. But we invite you to another examination of the news of the week through the lens of scripture.
Whether you are new in the faith or further down the road, you will encounter people and situations that confront and challenge your beliefs. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we spoke to a teacher who explained how to deal with criticism from others, the suffering that comes with standing up for your faith and why discovering what God’s love is must be one of the most important things we do in our faith walks. Perhaps it is the climate of our times or the rabid resistance to the things of God that seem to permeate our culture, but believers today are more reluctant, and in some cases even afraid to witness to others. Our guest cut through those fears and reticence to share how we can conquer our apprehensions and have honest, eternally important conversations with those we meet. Talking about the events of Revelation have more often than not been viewed as a reason to fear and be terrified at what is to come. But we shared the heart and insights of a well-respected pastor and teacher who encouraged God’s people to re-examine those events not in terms of what will happen but WHO is coming back and the great and glorious promises that will be filled when these prophecies are fulfilled. He explained how this change in perspective can deepen our relationship with the Lord while we wait anxiously for His return. Our guest took us into the life of Oswald Chambers, a man whose faith walk has inspired many, to give us new insights into his own journey with the Lord and to encourage us in ours. Join us for another deep dive into the headlines of the week as we scrutinize what we hear in the marketplace against what God’s word says.
