Jim Fielder,
Currently reading and discussing The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel

Why does God permit evil? Why do some prayers go unanswered? Why has God allowed the church to engage in brutality and hypocrisy? Tough questions demand convincing answers. Join journalist Strobel as he once again journeys across the country challenging philosophers, theologians, and ordinary believers to defend their faith. The evidence he uncovers may surprise you!

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

• "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
• "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
• "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
• "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
• "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
• "A loving God would never torture people in Hell"
• "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"
• "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian"

This book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Books may be purchased from your vendor of choice.

The Sanctuary Choir rehearses every Wednesday at 7:00 PM in the Sanctuary and teams up with the praise band to lead worship on Sunday mornings. Rehearsal is more than notes and rhythms.

Jim Fielder,
Currently reading and discussing The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel

Why does God permit evil? Why do some prayers go unanswered? Why has God allowed the church to engage in brutality and hypocrisy? Tough questions demand convincing answers. Join journalist Strobel as he once again journeys across the country challenging philosophers, theologians, and ordinary believers to defend their faith. The evidence he uncovers may surprise you!

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

• "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
• "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
• "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
• "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
• "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
• "A loving God would never torture people in Hell"
• "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"
• "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian"

This book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Jim Fielder,
Currently reading and discussing The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel

Why does God permit evil? Why do some prayers go unanswered? Why has God allowed the church to engage in brutality and hypocrisy? Tough questions demand convincing answers. Join journalist Strobel as he once again journeys across the country challenging philosophers, theologians, and ordinary believers to defend their faith. The evidence he uncovers may surprise you!

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

• "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
• "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
• "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
• "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
• "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
• "A loving God would never torture people in Hell"
• "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"
• "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian"

This book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Currently reading and discussing The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel

Why does God permit evil? Why do some prayers go unanswered? Why has God allowed the church to engage in brutality and hypocrisy? Tough questions demand convincing answers. Join journalist Strobel as he once again journeys across the country challenging philosophers, theologians, and ordinary believers to defend their faith. The evidence he uncovers may surprise you!

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

• "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
• "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
• "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
• "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
• "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
• "A loving God would never torture people in Hell"
• "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"

This book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Jim Fielder,
Currently reading and discussing The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel

Why does God permit evil? Why do some prayers go unanswered? Why has God allowed the church to engage in brutality and hypocrisy? Tough questions demand convincing answers. Join journalist Strobel as he once again journeys across the country challenging philosophers, theologians, and ordinary believers to defend their faith. The evidence he uncovers may surprise you!

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

• "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
• "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
• "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
• "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
• "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
• "A loving God would never torture people in Hell"
• "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"
• "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian"

This book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Books may be purchased from your vendor of choice.

42 is a domino game that is played like a card game using dominoes with a twist. You'll enjoy a good game and fellowship. We typically meet the fourth Friday of each month, with a few exceptions, from 5:30-9:00 PM in Rushing Hall. Please contact June Long at 830-237-7692 or   so she can organize an even number of players.

5:00 PM in Rushing Hall on the last Sunday of most months. The next Hymn Sing will be at the end of August.
