Questions for God

Is God real? Is the Bible true? What do Christians believe? Why does God allow evil? These are questions that non-Christians and Christians alike have been asking. A new book, “The God Questions,” was originally intended to enable Christians to invite friends to church. But pastors and co-authors Dr. Hal Seed and Dr. Dan Grider […]

Have an Opinion? Go to Jail.
