In the Market with Janet Parshall
May 03, 2023
Hour 1: Worldviews
Join us for a fascinating conversation on the impact of worldviews. A man, whose name is synonymous with retrieving and analyzing important survey data, will talk about how Americans have changed their behavior choices since the pandemic – and the news isn’t good. We then talk about the wave of transhumanism that is washing over our country. What role does transgenderism play in advancing the idea of transhumanism? We will answer that question and more. Get ready to think biblically and critically.
Hour 2: The Christ Cure
How is faith a foundational guide for healing psychological problems in the wake of trauma? Awakened by his own failures, our guest grasped for ways out of his deep depression and re-discovered inspiration in the life and works of the Apostle Paul, who himself lived a life filled with major traumatic experiences. Join us to hear new insights into how life-threatening abuse, chronic stress and self-inflicted trauma affects us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, and most importantly, how we can heal.
