Questions, Queso and Q'doba's. It makes for a great evening.

Every Tuesdays, I'm meeting with seniors in high school and younger college students at Q'doba's in the Arboretum to go through the eight most difficult questions posed to Christianity.

What about suffering?
What about evolution?
Is the Bible reliable?
How can Jesus be the only way?
Miracles contradict science.
Church history is full of violence.
How can I doubt and still be a Christian?
Is Hell real?

The questions are real, the struggles are difficult and the answers are not always neatly tied up in a bow with three sentences. But together, we are addressing and answering the tough questions that these young adult must face in and out of the classroom as they defend their faith in a growing secular world.

You'd be proud of these kids! I am. For their faith, their questions and their willingness to sit down with their pastor to help formulate some answers.

Jesus said, "I'm sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. . .be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves."

I'll let you know how it goes over the summer blogs.
