Hour 1: Christians and Israel
Israel and the Jewish people always seem to be in the headlines. Terrorism. War. Antisemitism on university campuses and around the globe. Jews are the topics of conversation in podcasts, on school campuses, and in our homes. Yet Christians are wondering about the modern State of Israel and contemporary Jewish people. Dr. Michael Rydelnik joins us to point to ancient prophecies and their fulfillment in modern times, exploring Israel’s unique identity and the special role Israel will play in God’s plan.
Hour 2: Born This Way?
Joe Dallas will help us tackle one of the most contentious issues in our culture today – sexual identity. How do we handle this issue when it comes home to our own kitchen tables? Today, we will open the phone lines to take your questions on what happens when sexual identity is no longer a headline but a family crisis. Call in with your questions on this important topic.
