In the Market with Janet Parshall

August 24, 2026

Hour 1: Strange New World

How did the world arrive at its current, disorienting state of identity politics, and how should the church respond? Historian Carl R. Trueman joins us to show how influences ranging from traditional institutions to technology and pornography moved modern culture toward an era of “expressive individualism.” Investigating philosophies from the Romantics, Nietzsche, Marx, Wilde, Freud, and the New Left, he will outline the history of Western thought to the distinctly sexual direction of present-day identity politics and explain the modern implications of these ideas on religion, free speech, and personal identity.

Hour 2: Holy Ambition

Human ambition is often rooted in pride. But “holy ambition”? That’s something else! When your ambitions aren’t about your own glory but God’s, you’ll find Him to be a source of empowerment that you can’t get anywhere else. Pastor and radio teacher Chip Ingram will join us to dive into the story of Nehemiah, a humble servant of the king who became a leader of his people. Nehemiah could have kept his comfortable position in the palace, but instead he chose a radical path that allowed him to do amazing things for God. You can too! But you’re going to have to take some risks. And that means you’ve got to put aside fear or pride and start acting on your holy ambitions.

Join us as investigative journalist and former atheist Lee Strobel examines the evidence and considers how we should think about the unseen world--and the God who made and rules over it.

Hour 1: The Apologetics Guide to Trusting the Bible

Far from being a blind or naïve leap of faith, Christian belief is rooted in evidential reality. Todd Hampson will join us to discuss his newest book, The Apologetics Guide to Trusting the Bible. He will provide evidence across multiple disciplines including science, archeology, history, and Scripture itself to help us discover the many ways you can have confidence that the Bible is true and trustworthy in every sense.

Hour 2: It Is War

According to a 2024 Real Clear Opinion Research poll, 70% of U.S. adults believe in hell, and roughly the same percentage believe in the devil. But believing and behaving are two different things. Dr. Karl Payne will join us to answer the question of why so few Americans let belief in the supernatural impact the way they live. Plus, we open the phone lines to take your questions. Call in early because there are always lots of questions on the topic of spiritual warfare.

Hour 2: Economic Evidence For God

The God who created economic actors and the beliefs that drive their activities is most often blatantly ignored in the field of economics. There is, in fact, vast economic evidence that the One who boldly and unilaterally claims not only to have created all things but also to sustain all things. Chuck Bentley will join us to examine the evidence and as you press into the evidence, it will become more exciting as you begin to see the world and even your own economic activity through an entirely new perspective.

Hour 1: Taking Back Truth

Post-truth, AI deep fakes, truthiness, propaganda, alternative facts, true for you but not for me--the concept of truth has been taking a beating for decades, but in recent years it feels as though we may have moved beyond the point of no return. Not only are our concepts of truth not aligned with biblical teachings, but they are also patently out of step with objective reality. With a strong desire to help Christians discern truth from error, senior apologist Dr. Douglas Groothuis explores our culture's deficient view of truth and clearly explains the nature of truth, how to know if something is true, and how to bring truth to bear on some of the most pressing issues of our times.

Hour 2: The War On Reality

For decades, society has grown increasingly untethered from what is real. Now biology is negotiable, feelings outrank facts, and confusion is shaping how the next generation understands God, human nature, morality, and destiny. Dr. Frank Turek will join us to expose the destructive ideas pulling Western civilization off course. Drawing from Scripture, logic, philosophy, science, and history, he will equip us to speak with conviction in a culture that desperately needs truth.

Hour 1: Unframed

Drawing on interviews with leading thinkers, real-life stories, and deep scriptural insight, Dr. Josh Moody will join us to “unframe” the Gospel―removing the negative perspectives and misunderstandings that often cloud its message. Learn how to break free from stereotypes about Christianity and learn to see it in a new, authentic light.

Hour 2: Relationship Skills

Licensed professional counselor Debra Fileta uses the predictable patterns every relationship moves through­―what she calls the four seasons―as the roadmap for building a healthier, stronger connection. Just like the seasons shift, every relationship moves through different stages, each one bringing its own rhythms, challenges, and opportunities for growth. How you show up in those seasons will either strengthen your relationship or slowly wear it down. Join us for great conversation.

Olivier Melnick from Shalom in Messiah ministries was back to address the ongoing attacks on Jews across the world and why popular accusations of colonization, occupation, apartheid and genocide by the Jews have no basis in history or truth. Dr. Sam Storms joined us for an important conversation about the exclusivity of the gospel and why Jesus is, was, and ever shall be the ONLY ways of salvation. He took us deep into John 14:6 & Romans 1:18-25 and explained why all of God’s word is focused on one goal: Salvation. The attack on efforts to lead people away from same-sex struggles is spreading, so Wayne Blakely shared with us a new documentary addressing this very serious issue and the ongoing attacks on religious freedom.

Hour 1: The Final Algorithm

Artificial intelligence is no longer simply changing how we work—it is reshaping authority, trust, and decision-making itself. As digital systems increasingly govern commerce, communication, and identity, humanity approaches a threshold Scripture warned would come: a deception so persuasive that even the elect could be led astray.

Maginnis will join us to examine how today’s technological power aligns with biblical prophecy in ways that are no longer distant or theoretical.

Hour 2: Faith and Science

This hour, Dr. Fazale Rana, from Reasons to Believe, will discuss gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR and how these advances are transforming medicine, giving scientists the ability to correct genetic disorders like cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia.

Best of In The Market with Janet Parshall: Born This Way?

Joe Dallas joins us to discuss why the U.K. Parliament is pushing so hard to advance legislation that would ban "conversation therapy" in the U.S. If passed, the penalties for compassionately sharing information to people who struggle and want out of a same-sex relationship would be horrific. Join us to learn more and why this could easily happen in America.

Hour 1: Armed With Truth

Marriage is not just a fairytale of finding the one meant for you. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, Dr. Donald Welch provided guidance for addressing and overcoming the challenges that come from combining two unique lives into one cohesive union. Dr. Michael Rydelnik was back as we continued digging into the increase of antisemitism and why nearly half of Americans surveyed want Netanyahu arrested. Ending depression is not just about living a better life, Dr. David Carreon says it is about creating new lifestyle changes and leaving old habits behind. He provided a road map to guide on that journey. What does it mean to find true rest in God? Adam Mabry explained what biblical rest is and is not and why it should not be an option but an essential part of the believer’s faith walk. D.L. Moody’s “straight stick of truth” reference to God’s word has never been more needed than in today’s compromising and conflicted time. Janet and Craig once encouraged us by example on using that straight stick as a measure against the crooked and divisive idea permeating our world today.

Hour 2: Grounded In Faith

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, Alisa Childers issued a timely warning about the efforts to destroy the church from the inside out by those who support a deconstructionist viewpoint.  She provided clear guidance on what Deconstruction is and how believers can stand against it. Joe Dallas was discussed the United Kingdom’s efforts to criminalize any kind of therapy that leads people away from a same-sex lifestyle and why this is effort is a direct attack on the transforming hope of the gospel message. Climate rhetoric has led to concern and confusion, but Dr. Cal Beisner & Dr. David Legates turned their expertise to this many faceted issue and explained the hidden agendas behind the distrust of traditional energy sources.  How do you share the hope of the gospel with resistant people without becoming antagonistic yourself? Lindsey Medenwaldt showed us how to create tender, compassionate relationships with those we are reaching out to and how those bonds can create doorways for the love of Christ to reach into their lives. We have a seat ready and waiting for you in our radio classroom as Janet and Craig continue teaching us how to examine the headlines through the lens of scripture.

Hour 1: The Art of Rest

For some of us, resting seems like a waste of time—it means we're missing out on other things. For others, rest seems like a luxury—there's simply too much to do. And for almost all of us, we crave rest, but don't always know how to. Join us today as Adam Mabry shows us how rest fuels our joy and confidence in God's sovereignty as we learn to depend on Him, and not our own efforts, and are refreshed by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Hour 2: Bridgebuilding Apologetics

As Christians, when we take a stand for our faith, we want to avoid coming across as overly combative or adversarial. While it’s important to be uncompromising when we communicate the truth, Scripture also calls us to speak the truth with love. Lindsey Medenwaldt joins us today to help us establish caring and compassionate relationships with those whom you desire to reach for Christ. Even in the face of deep differences, we can learn how to grow in our confidence to engage others effectively with the love of Jesus and the Truth of Scripture.

Hour 1: The Opposite of Depression

Dr. David Carreon, a Stanford-trained psychiatrist, will join us to reveal what it takes to move from nagging disappointment, dissatisfaction, or depression to a life of thriving. He knows that just eliminating the symptoms of depression isn’t enough. To live a truly fulfilling life, his patients needed to leave old habits behind and embrace the patterns of flourishing. He will draw on insights from his clinical experience, the latest research, and his Christian faith to point us to principles and practices that promote thriving in mind, body and soul.

Hour 2: Climate Fact or Fiction?

The attempted cures for climate change are generally worse than the disease—especially for the poor. Demands to transform the global energy infrastructure to depend heavily on wind, solar, and other renewables are harmful to people in America and the world–especially to the poor. Meanwhile, continued large-scale use of traditional energy sources like nuclear, hydro, and fossil fuels would reduce poverty while doing less harm to the environment. Join us as Dr. Cal Beisner and Dr. David Legates combine outstanding climate science, physics, economics, environmental science, political science, ethics, and theology to present a well-reasoned understanding of human-induced climate change and how to respond to it.

Hour 1: Christians and Israel

Israel and the Jewish people always seem to be in the headlines. Terrorism. War. Antisemitism on university campuses and around the globe. Jews are the topics of conversation in podcasts, on school campuses, and in our homes. Yet Christians are wondering about the modern State of Israel and contemporary Jewish people. Dr. Michael Rydelnik joins us to point to ancient prophecies and their fulfillment in modern times, exploring Israel’s unique identity and the special role Israel will play in God’s plan.

Hour 2: Born This Way?

Joe Dallas joins us to discuss why the U.K. Parliament is pushing so hard to advance legislation that would ban "conversation therapy" in the U.S. If passed, the penalties for compassionately sharing information to people who struggle and want out of a same-sex relationship would be horrific.

Hour 1: The Responsive Marriage

When you marry, your heart overflows with enthusiasm, exhilaration, and optimism. But soon after, differences in temperament, gender, family of origin, and marital expectations collide. Before long, your dialogue degrades with frequent accusations and debates about perspective. Dr. Donald W. Welch will show us the enemy in this fight isn’t your spouse. Unmanaged reactivity, those involuntary and unregulated reactive messages you inadvertently send your spouse when you’re triggered, is the culprit.

Hour 2: The Deconstruction of Christianity

A movement called ‘deconstruction’ is sweeping through our churches and it is affecting our loved ones. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many. Maybe you’re experiencing doubt yourself and facing hard questions about truth, God, the Bible, theology and the gospel. Alisa Childers joins us to help us understand what deconstruction is, where it comes from, why it is compelling to some, and how it disorients the lives of so many.

Best Of In The Market with Janet Parshall: Muslims and Ministry

Join us as Al Fadi, a former Wahabbi Muslim from Saudi Arabia, explains why the proponents of Sharia Law want to establish Sharia courts in America. How do followers of Christ respond to demands for the elimination of dog parks, or insistence on public prayers being played over loudspeakers from mosques? How do we deal with the political side of a religion that leaves people in darkness? Join us for a fascinating and timely conversation.
