August 11, 2025
Hour 1: Hollywood and Humanitarianism
We start our broadcast by checking out some of the stories making headlines before hearing from Karen Covell how we can pray specifically for those who serve in the entertainment industry. We round out the hour with a conversation with Victor Marx, who will remind us what it means to be set free physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Hour 2: Birth rates and Bombs
This hour, we hear about the alarmingly low birth rates in the U.S. during 2024. Why the decline? Why does this matter? Emma Waters, from the Heritage Foundation, will give us some keen insights. We then hear from Tom Doyle, founder of Uncharted Ministries, who will give us some “boots on the ground” stories from the Middle East. Get ready to think critically and biblically this hour.

Best of In The Market with Janet Parshall: Beyond Evolution
A flash point for much of the science vs. faith divide has been Darwinian evolution. Sharing the same mistaken belief that science contradicts the Bible, especially the Genesis account of creation, many scientists and many Christians have concluded that the worlds of science and religion are at odds. But according to biologist Sy Garte, PhD, evolution is irrelevant to the harmony of faith and science. And revolutionary new developments in biology are providing stronger evidence than ever before of a purposeful creator God. Join us as Dr. Garte shares the latest scientific research with a biblical worldview.

Hour 1: Faith In The Face of Uncertainty
Often believers associate God’s grace ONLY with His provision of salvation through the life, death and resurrection of Christ. But we spoke to a man who drew us deep into the heart of God through His word to demonstrate how wrong that assumption truly is. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we saw how God’s grace has been woven through every jot and tittle of scripture. From the very beginning of mankind’s story in Genesis, to the life of Jonah to that ultimate demonstration on the cross, our guest helped us understand and better appreciate the magnitude of this unmerited gift. We spent time with a scientist and former atheist who shared his journey to saving faith and challenged the false, but common belief, that science and faith are mutually exclusive ideas. He showed how ongoing scientific research is continuing to disprove the assertions of evolution and repeatedly support God’s description of His creation including how we came to be. The ideas of Karl Marx have been repackaged for a new generation with multi-colored wrapping and a shiny bow, all to disguise the same old vile and evil belief system that it has always been. Our guest unwrapped that box and revealed the origins of Marxism, who Karl Marx really was and how his fascination with Satan leached itself into every part of his soul-destroying creation. Then in contrast we turned our eyes to the apostle Peter as we saw his journey from rebellious incompetence to seasoned leader and in the process learned how to face our own challenges by using the same tool he used, the Word of God. From the ongoing crisis in the Middle East, to the continual encroachment of artificial intelligence, to the word domination dreams of China, all around us the world is sitting on a knife’s edge creating confusion, fear and uncertainty. But Janet and Craig invite us once again to draw away from all the clamor to learn how to listen to and use God’s word to guide us clearly and safely through that blizzard of rhetoric that we encounter daily.
Hour 2: Certainty In The Face of Confusion
The fight to save the unborn got some good news! On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we shared with you the news that an unprecedented number of Planned Parenthood clinics have shut their doors across the nation. We also helped you to once again lengthen your prayer lists as we heard about more believers around the world who are laying their lives down to the sake of the gospel. Why does witnessing seems to be one of the hardest things for believers to do? Our guest challenged us all with this eternally important question. He confronted and encouraged us with God’s word regarding the importance of sharing the good news with a lost world. Taking some of the fear out of the proposition, our guest used scripture to show believer how to live lives that invite people ask about the difference and thereby create openings to share Christ with them. It is an old adage, but true nonetheless, “Freedom isn’t free!” And in our day and age it is under assault like never before. From surveillance technology all around us to the increase acceptance of socialism at the highest levels of government leadership, freedoms that previous generations fought to preserve are now the sacrificial lambs to totalitarianism. Our guest encouraged us to not only recognize the times we are living in but to take action now before it is too late to take action at all! Is God passe’, past His prime, a relic of past generations that didn’t know better? You might be surprised to learn that many of the people you drive by in your daily commute or pass in the grocery aisle believe this. Our guest explained how we have changed from a God-fearing nation to one that has pushed Him aside. His practical strategies helped us understand the root of the struggles and how to address them boldly and biblically as we continue to contend for the faith. The end of the week is upon us and that means it is time to sit down for another radio classroom lesson on using God’s word as the measuring stick of truth against the false, misleading and dangerous ideas bought and sold in the marketplace of ideas every day. Our favorite husband and wife teaching team are ready to show us how to discern the truth from the lies, as they examine more of the headlines of the week.

Hour 1: Peter Principles
Any wise leader can learn from Peter—a man who knew his own incompetence, trusted in Christ, and met his deficiencies through the insights of God’s Word. Dr. Peter Lillback, president of Westminster Theological Seminary, uses the apostle Peter’s life and writings to guide men and women through the details and daily challenges of leadership in any arena. Learn how to think through relationships, productivity, management style, communication, decision-making, conflict resolution, integrity, and more. Join us to learn the Peter Principles.
Hour 2: Why We (Still) Believe
The West has become permeated with a culture that doesn't 'do' God. Many people assert that we have progressed, while Christians are still clinging to outdated ideas. Today we will examine some specific contemporary attacks on Christianity, learn how to respond and give reasons for why we can 'continue in the faith' (Col.1:23)

Hour 1: The Devil and Karl Marx
Far too many people separate Marx, the man, from the evils wrought by the oppressive ideology and theory that bears his name. Not only did the horrific results of Marxism follow directly from Marx’s twisted ideas, but the man himself penned some downright devilish things. Well before Karl Marx was writing about the hell of communism, he was writing about hell. Dr. Paul Kengor will give us a close, careful look at the diabolical side of Karl Marx, a side of a man whose fascination with the devil and his domain would echo into the twentieth century and continue to wreak havoc today.
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.

Hour 2: Witness
Each one of us came to saving faith in Jesus and was brought into God’s family because of faithful witnesses sharing the gospel message. And so, it’s our privilege as the church to keep on telling others this amazing news! Jonathan Dodson will give us practical, biblical wisdom on how to share the gospel in a compassionate and winsome way. Using many real-life examples, he will encourage us to live in a manner that draws people to the truth and beauty of Christ. And, to proclaim the gospel with a natural ease that speaks into the lives of the people we meet. Together with our church family, we can feel confident in reaching the community through effective Spirit-filled evangelism, underlined with confident, persistent prayer.
