Popular media often jokes about people with a narcissistic personality type but for those who live with someone with a narcissist, there is nothing to laugh about. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we were joined once again by a woman who turned her journey with narcissism into a professional life of helping other navigate the myriad challenges that come with it. She answered your questions with personal and professional insight grounded in clear guidance from God’s word. Although the news is filled with crisis in the Middle East there are other battlefronts that are creating great concerns. We told you about the U.K. vote to approve abortion through birth and how the World Health Organization’s passage of the pandemic treaty is a clear and present danger to national sovereignty with its mandates for digital I.D. that will be used to control our lives including access to our money and even the freedom to have and use a cell phone. God is a creator of wonder and awe. Our guest gathered insights from people who are experts in many fields to help us develop our own deeper sense of wonder at the multi-faceted world that God created for us. Once again you came with your most challenging spiritual warfare questions as one of our favorite bible teachers joined us for another biblically grounded discussion of the unseen world that surrounds us. Once again using the bible as the arbiter of truth, our favorite husband and wife team are back to continue teaching us how to understand the headlines through the lens of scripture.
