In the Market with Janet Parshall
May 24, 2023
Hour 1: Military Preparedness and Prayer
Join us this hour to hear an update on the diversity programs the U.S. military is a part of and why such a move puts America’s forces at risk. Why the need to expand the diversity industrial complex within our armed forces? We then take a look at guidelines put out by the federal government on prayer and religion in school. Is it all accurate and legally defensible? This hour we will provide the answers.
Hour 2: Agonizing Peace
If you're not sure where God is during the tough times, or whether He even cares, you're not alone. Are you lacking peace in your life while you walk through a traumatic experience? You're not alone. Discover the path to regain and retain real peace with God, with others, and with yourself amid tragedy. Powering through difficult times is tough, but not impossible. If we knew everything about God, He wouldn't be much of a god, but we know enough about Him to trust him, to know that He loves us, to reduce our anxieties, and regain our peace.
