Reinvent PodcastFuture of Sharing: Houston’s Response to the Sharing Economy’s Regulatory ChallengesAnnise Parker, the mayor of Houston, Texas, from 2010 until January 2016, is well-accustomed to navigating the often murky waters of sharing economy regulation. Parker’s first experience with the sharing economy was using Zipcar’s technology to manage Houston’s fleet of light-duty vehicles. Later in her tenure as mayor, Parker worked to create a regulatory level playing field for the taxi industry and ride-sharing apps by lessening regulations on taxis and applying what she viewed as necessary regulations to the apps. “You can’t take a heavily regulated industry and de-regulate it overnight,” Parker said.2018-01-1000 min

The ConversationMayors: Annise Parker and Chhavi RajawatAnnise Parker is the mayor of Houston, Texas, the oil and gas capital of America.

On the other side of the spectrum, certain liberal theologians are reinterpreting scripture and doctrine in ways that have never been seen in the history of the Church.Respected Bible scholar Dr. Doug Stauffer explains the difference between progressive revelation (which, contrary to those who declare that "God is doing a new thing," ended when the biblical canon was complete) and progressive illumination, which is the ongoing study and understanding of what is in Hi...2014-10-1645 min
