GO DEEPER Study and Reflection Questions 5/1
Let’s face it, when it comes to heaven and hell there are still a lot of questions. Since none of us have gone there and come back to tell others about it, forever is fairly unknown to us, and unknown things cause confusion and fear. This week we attempt to remove that confusion and fear as we ask some honest questions about forever, knowing fully that the only thing that will ultimately answer our questions and drive out the fear is Jesus.
