In the Market with Janet Parshall

Hour 1: Minimum Wage: Blessing or Burden
A politician recently quoted a Bible verse as a support for raising the minimum wage. But is that what Scripture teaches? Why are so many people starting to embrace the concept of socialism? Is that a biblically affirmed model for governance? Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on money and morality.
Hour 2: Faith At Work
In Matthew 10:16, Christ told His disciples to be “wise” and “innocent” when they went “in the midst of wolves.” Today our guest will show us how to be both wise and innocent as we work among people who sometimes behave like wolves. Temptation, greed, dishonesty, and misguided ambition have always presented challenges for Christians in the workplace. Add secular bias, political correctness and persecution to the mix, and the modern workplace becomes a foreboding environment for Christians to navigate. How, then, do we earn a living without compromising our faith? Join us to learn how to find our way and thrive on the job.
