Understanding the Times

On the first half of this broadcast Dr. Norm Geisler joins Jan to discuss his new book, If God, Why Evil? In an effort to answer this question, Norm Geisler provides the clearest, most comprehensive and penetrating presentation on one of the most difficult problems that thinking Christians face. Where did evil come from? And why doesn't God do something about it? Can't He just put an end to murder, rape, and starvation? What about earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis? Why couldn't a perfect God have made a perfect world? Jan and Dr. Geisler also review the issue of Hell and briefly address Rob Bell's new book on this subject.

On the second half of this broadcast Dr. Ron Carlson and Jan discuss the real reason for the "red state/blue state divide." It is worldview and a clash between godless secular humanists and those who think biblically. The world has been brainwashed for decades now that man is only pond scum and we have all "evolved." That has created a philosophy of secular humanism running almost everything in the world, including most of America. It has allowed rogue nations, and particularly Communism, Socialism, and Fascism, to exterminate millions without a blink because they aren't destroying any life of importance. This is an eye-opener as to why society is decaying. Carlson always brings hope, however. You can find Carlson's book here. It is titled Fast Facts on False Teachings. www.roncarlson.com
