So my Dad enjoys listening to Jan Markell, a Jewish Christian who has a discernment ministry podcast. Has anyone heard of her? She has guests on every episode talking about one controversial topic or another: the emerging church, the peace treaty with Iran, International House of Prayer, etc. They are prettymuch always promoting a DVD or some other material through her podcast. She seems to be on the extreme right and has an emphasis on eschatology.
To me, some of her episodes seem very useful, like the Social Justice episode about how the emerging church forgets about the gospel in trying to find social justice. But a lot of what she has to say sounds very sensational and absolutist. I admit that sometimes I listen to her just for the crazy factor. What outrageous thing will she say next?
But I also haven't really researched the guests or sources for her information, so I don't know what to think about what she has to say. Is it twisted? Is it at least based on fact in some way or form?
Anyone listen to her? Heard of her? What do you think?
