Moody RadioCould America crumble? Our culture is increasingly immoral, the family is threatened from all sides, and government programs are creating massive debt. Our guest today, a nationally syndicated columnist and political commentator, believes that if we're willing to seek God first, learn from history, and make changes as individuals and communities, we can not only survive but thrive again. Join us for a very important and timely conversation.
We have a full hour of news for you. We start with the headlines of the day and then we get to hear from an emergency room physician on what is and isn't true about the coronavirus and how we can make practical decisions on protecting our health. Then, you will be asked to make substantial and sometimes personal choices regarding marijuana in your home, neighborhood, workplace, school, and even at the voting booth. However, myths and misinformation about marijuana have blossomed and flourished, creating a Grand Canyon-like chasm between the public’s perception and scientific reality. In this cultural moment, a dispassionate, objective, and scientific view is desperately needed. Our guest, a Christian physician, has written a comprehensive and approachable book to help you separate fact from emotion, certitude from myth, and truth from spin. He will share his knowledge and insight into this often controversial topic.
