Summary
Millions of Christians across Africa face a severe shortage of Bibles, a situation described as a "Bible famine." The Timothy Project is on the verge of launching Africa's first Bible web press to address this critical need. The initiative aims to provide access to God's Word for those who are currently unable to obtain it.
In a recent discussion, Janet and Craig Parshall examined various current events, including a controversial announcement by a pastor who revealed he is in a polygamous marriage. This revelation sparked debate about the biblical definition of marriage, with the Parshalls emphasizing that scripture supports the union of one man and one woman. They referenced biblical texts that outline the qualifications for church leaders, arguing that polygamy is not endorsed by God.
The couple also addressed a bizarre incident in Scotland where a museum removed ancient Egyptian mummies from display due to a lack of consent, which they criticized as an example of misguided modern sensibilities. They argued that such actions undermine the value of historical artifacts and the lessons they can teach about humanity's past.
Lastly, they highlighted recent archaeological findings that lend credence to the resurrection of Jesus, citing a nearly 2,000-year-old manuscript that may contain original wording about the event. This discovery reinforces the historical validity of biblical accounts and serves as a counterpoint to contemporary theological debates questioning the inerrancy of scripture.

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, one of our most favorite authors Robert Morgan took into his own personal journey of loss and what he learned about the faithfulness of God. What is “Telos” and how does it apply to and impact how we live our lives? Dr. Stephen Iacoboni explains what this important concept is all about and how it applies to our ability to live our lives the way God intended. Clinical Psychologist and author Dr. Juli Slattery talked boldly and biblically with us about human sexuality and why it is more than a physical act but an aspect of our being and how our shame and guilt around sex can prevent us from coming to God for healing of those wounds. Dr. Vince Vitale helped us explore the age-old questions surround the existence of evil in the world through the application of God’s word, allowing us to bring clear biblical truth to questions that plague the saved and unsaved alike. Join Janet and Craig as they show us how to discern the truth behind the confusion and misrepresentation of news that fills our lives each week.

Sexuality is a hot topic these days, and opinions are all over the place. Dr. Juli Slattery will join us to fill the gap by providing a broader, more comprehensive understanding of what it means to honor God with our sexuality. She will equip single women to understand their sexuality, trust the Lord for redemption and healing, and stand against the cultural trends that marginalize and compromise God’s design for sex.

Modern culture is increasingly outspoken against a biblical understanding of what it means to be a woman. Even some Christians, swayed by the LGBTQ+ movement, have rejected God’s word on issues of sexuality and gender in favor of popular opinion. In light of these pressures, it’s more important than ever to help women see the truth about who God created them to be. Join us as Dr. Rosaria Butterfield uses Scripture to confront 5 common lies about sexuality, faith, feminism, gender roles, and modesty often promoted in our secular culture today. She will share her personal battle with these lies and interweave her story with cultural studies, literary criticism, and theology—to help us see the beauty in biblical womanhood, marriage, and motherhood.
