In the Market with Janet Parshall
June 24, 2025
Hour 1: If The Ocean Has A Soul
For marine biologist Rachel Jordan, both science and Scripture are means of knowing creation and the Creator. Rachel joins us as she considers the natural world through a spiritual lens, meshing marine biology with biblical truths in a keen and current take on faith and science. Rachel’s thoughtful scientific and theological insights encourage us to know the Creator of the sea and everything in it.
Hour 2: The View From Down Under
Join us this hour as we wing our way down under to the land of Oz, where we will hear from our favorite Scottish apologist. Hear his take on some horrific legislation weaving its way through Parliament that expands abortion rights and opens the door to assisted suicide. Then, how should a Christian respond to the bombing of nuclear sites in Iran? Get the answer to that question and more as we learn to think critically and biblically.
