Christian Information Radio

The Crosstalk Radio Talk Show is heard each weekday on over 90 radio outlets across America and worldwide on the Internet. Crosstalk covers the issues that affect our world, our nation, our families and the Christian church from a perspective centered in the Word of God. Whether we discuss the economy, the political scene, the continuing moral collapse of our nation, legislation that affects the family, or the state of evangelicalism, our authority is found in the unchanging standard of the Holy Scriptures. Veteran co-hosts Dr. Vic Eliason and Jim Schneider have worked as a team for over 20 years to bring solid information to the body of Christ.

Air Date: March 4, 2012

Show Description:
Jim began this edition of Crosstalk with news that the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence will vote tomorrow on the nomination of John Brennan to head our nation’s Central Intelligence Agency. If confirmed, he will be the most pro-Islam director to ever head the agency.

Christians have become drawn to social networking Internet sites like Facebook and Twitter but what kind of witness for Christ are non-believers seeing? Unfortunately, these social networking outlets are bringing out or causing many professing Christians to exhibit behavior we might not normally see from them; behaviors such as gossip, idolatry, glorification of self and poor time management. In essence, these sites can become so all-consuming that even Christian users can literally find themselves living in a virtual world.

If you participate in social networking, what kind of safeguards do you have in place for yourself? Do you monitor what your children send out on these sites? These are just two considerations that Jim presented as challenges to listeners as they responded to the question of whether Christians can show themselves as faithful when using social media. » More Information & Audio Options
