In the Market with Janet Parshall
Hour 1: Iran’s Great Awakening
In the mid-1980’s, Dr. Hormoz Shariat and his wife prayed, "Lord, use us to save Iran!" His passion for Muslims stems, in part, from the murder of his brother, Hamraz, who was arrested in Iran at the age of sixteen on a minor political charge. After two years in jail, he was executed by firing squad. God showed Dr. Shariat the best way to respond to this tragedy was to dedicate his life to bring one million Muslims to salvation in Christ. Join us on a journey out of bondage to Islam to freedom in Christ. Learn what the Bible says about Iran and why Iran is just the beginning of something big, eternal, and of historical proportion that is already happening!
Hour 2: Live Not By Lies
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn once noted that people often assume that their democratic government would never submit to totalitarianism---but Rod Dreher says it's happening. Sounding the alarm about the insidious effects of identity politics, surveillance technology, psychological manipulation, and more, he equips contemporary Christian dissidents to see, judge, and act as they fight to resist the erosion of our freedoms. Don’t miss this timely conversation.
