Spiritual depression is defined as the prolonged and pervasive numbing, muting, suppressing, or restraining of the joy of the Lord within the life of the Christian. And more and more Christians are besieged with it. Experiencing feelings of doubt, anxiety, or despair can become the norm of our daily lives. Despite our struggles, the Bible gives us numerous exhortations to battle our downcast condition. But how? Sometimes it feels hopeless, as if nothing can pull us from the mire. Join us as pastor and teacher Nate Pickowicz helps us administer God’s balm to our spiritual wounds.

A movement seeks to redefine Christianity. Some think that it is a much-needed progressive reformation. Others believe that it is an attack on historic Christianity. Alisa Childers never thought she would question her Christian faith. She was raised in a Christian home, where she had seen her mom and dad feed the hungry, clothe the homeless, and love the outcast. She had witnessed God at work and then had dedicated her own life to leading worship, as part of the popular Christian band ZOEgirl. All that was deeply challenged when she met a progressive pastor, who called himself a hopeful agnostic. Alisa will join us to describe the intellectual journey Alisa took over several years as she wrestled with a series of questions that struck at the core of the Christian faith.

Many believers know that “God is love.” But whether through cultural lies, false beliefs, or years of mulling over the tragedies of the world, it may be difficult to see the true, steadfast, and unchanging love of the Father. Thankfully, the Bible offers a clear picture of what God’s love looks like and how, through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, believers experience His affection for themselves. Pastor and theologian Dr. Sam Storms will address what God’s love is and what it isn’t. Join us as Dr. Storms breaks down obstacles that prevent believers from accepting biblical truths and challenges the cultural lies that hinder them from accepting God’s vast and unfathomable love.

Trust makes everything better. It's the glue that binds people together. From families, friendships, companies and communities, we know that trust is the fuel that drives long-term success and impact. But we also know what betrayal feels like. We know that trust is a fragile, vulnerable gift that can be abused, broken, and exploited with devastating consequences. Mac Richard challenges conventional wisdom with biblical insights, humor, and passion as he explains how to process the pain of betrayal, discern who to trust and deploy trust even in the harshest environments. Come with your questions - and learn to trust again. Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partners See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can we really believe what some experts say when they claim that the ever-encroaching acceptance and use of artificial intelligence is value neutral? On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we had a frank discussion with a highly respected expert in the tech arena who explained why this technology is not value neutral, how AI and its precursor social media were purposely designed to become addictive and how their use can lead to a distant relationship with God. Despite the popular ideas in the media our guest, a former follower of Islam warned us about the foundational truth of Islam and how its theologically political beliefs are advanced either by word of mouth or the edge of the sword. He shared his own journey from Islam to Christ and how we can engage our Muslim neighbors with the eternal truth of salvation. A few years ago we all heard about critical race theory but many people were not aware that it was just a new variation of critical theory which found it origins in academia and spread like a virus through society. Our guest took us back in time to explain its origins and how believers can bring the life-giving truth of God to bear against this powerful deception. Once again, we invited you to ask your questions about narcissism. Our guest, an expert in this field, used her training, personal experience and biblical insight to help our listeners navigate the multi-faceted challenges of living with this most dangerous personality type. As we close out the week our husband and wife team invite you to another examination of the headlines of the week through the lens of scripture.

As Christians, we play into the hand of Satan and his demonic host when we approach demonic warfare as a theoretical game or curiosity rather than a life-threatening conspiracy from the pit of hell. While we try to see how "normal" we can still appear to other Christians and our non-Christian colleagues and neighbors, demonic accusers relentlessly and ruthlessly plot our distraction and destruction. Dr. Karl Payne will join us to focus on clarifying and explaining the "how to's" for recognizing and resolving attacks from the world, the flesh, and the devil. Join us as we open the phones to take your questions on this crucial topic.

The inability to say "no" can result in overcommitment, leaving us exhausted and even bitter toward those who make demands on our time and energy. Similarly, compromising our beliefs to keep a relationship can draw us away from who God has made us to be and what he has called us to do. In both cases, we need to be able to set wise boundaries, prioritizing pleasing God rather than pleasing others or even ourselves. Christian counselor Jim Newheiser will offer practical advice for setting appropriate boundaries in our relationships and use real-life scenarios to teach how to manage difficult situations.

Doug Smith knows what goes on behind the tech curtain. He joins us today to discuss a recent event held at a Christian college where a major player in the tech industry posited the idea that AI is "value neutral", but is it? Is progress always good? Is AI designed to 'eliminate poverty' or is that the job of the Church, the government, and the Christ-follower? Join us for a timely and important conversation on the new technology working its way into the Church.

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we told you about a powerful new documentary that drives home the brutal reality of the October 7 attacks in Israel and the violent evil perpetrated by Hamas, in all its stark, unflinching truth. Then we turned our attention once again to China as we heard about that nations move to create gestational robots to carry human babies to term. We discussed the deeper issues related to the technology as it serves as another step to acceptance of a transhumanist view of mankind, ignoring the unique God given role we have as a part of His divine plan. Alcoholism and other types of addiction can seem like insurmountable mountains to overcome but our guest opened the door of his personal journey to share how he found true liberty in a deeper dependance on God. He shared a 4-step plan that can lead anyone who struggles with an addiction to true freedom. We stamped your ticked for a radio flight to Australia and another informative visit with our favorite Scottish apologist. He made us aware of some significant changes going on in the U.K. that are opening the door to increased acceptance of Islam and Islamic law and the dangers to religious freedom that acceptance creates for believers. He also uncovered the motivations behind those recent U.K. unity marches. We gave you an update on how Christians in Iran are faring in these challenging times and we helped you extend your prayer list with our favorite missionary to the entertainment industry as she shared more stories of God moving and changing the lives of the biggest influencers in the world. Like never before humans are being bombarded with messages, ideas, viewpoints, and philosophies on a minute-by-minute basis through social media, the internet and podcasts. You can be forgiven for feeling overwhelmed and confused with all that noise for not knowing which way to turn or making a wrong turn as you navigate your way through today’s marketplace of ideas. That is why we end each week on our program by inviting to come away from the cacophony and spend some time with Janet and Craig as they draw us back to the unfiltered, unwavering, unchanging word of God and teach us how to find and follow His clear voice no matter the issue or challenge we that comes our way.

We started this week on the anniversary of the October 7 attack by Hamas on Israel and her people in 2023. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we turned to our expert on the Jewish people, their history and their prophetic future to talk about the impact of this brutal event, where we stand now in regards to negotiations to end the war and return the hostages and why so many people are turning away from the biblical truth that the Jews are indeed God’s chosen people. We all think of courage as that quality displayed by those who scale great heights or put their lives in danger to save others. But what if one of the most essential types of courage is smaller and more intimate but just as important? Our guest shared her own journey to discover what it means to address the wounds of life and discover the roadmap to true biblical courage and how that discovery can give each of us the ability to make fearless choices that honor God and bring transformative change to our lives and the lives of others. A highly respected evangelist shared with us the role of the conscious in convicting people of their sin and revealing their need for salvation. Should schools determine the mental well-being of our children? An expert in family matters joined us to explore the deeper implications of a new bill that proposes mental health checks for children and why parents should be highly concerned over such a proposal. We have finally reached the end of another eventful week and it is time once again to focus our attention to the front of our radio classroom as your favorite husband and wife teaching team continue to educate us on the many ways that living our lives with a newspaper in one hand the Bible in the other allows us to cut through the confusion of the many voices vying for our attention in today’s marketplace of ideas so that we can hear the clear clarion call of God’s leading for our lives.
