“My wife gets after me because she says I'm lazy and don't get things done around the house, but I don't see anything wrong with enjoying life once in a while. Maybe she's right, but I wish she'd see my point of view. Am I wrong to feel this way?”
“I admit I’m a worrier, but I just can’t help it. I’ve always been this way, and no matter what people say to try to reassure me, I still worry about what might happen — not just to me, but to everyone in my family. Are some people just natural worriers?”
“How can God forget our sins, which is what I understand the Bible says? I can understand that He might forgive us, but how can God forget anything, especially the bad things we've done?”
“I'm really upset because I asked my pastor for advice about a very personal problem, and a few weeks later I discovered he had told several people about it. Wasn't this wrong?”
“Does God know everything that's going to happen to us? I suppose you'll say He does, but if He knows everything, then why doesn't He intervene and stop all the bad stuff before it even happens?”
“If angels are real, then why can't we see them? I know you often see pictures or figures of them with wings and halos and everything, but how do we know what they look like, or even if they exist?”
“If all our sins are forgiven, then why does the Bible say we'll have to stand before God to be judged? Does this mean it isn't enough to believe in Jesus and put our trust in Him as our Saviour?”
“I know I ought to read my Bible, and I try to, but I just can't seem to make much sense of it. How can I get more out of my Bible? Maybe I need one of those modern translations.”
“I wish someone had told me how hard it is to be a single mom. I thought getting a divorce would be the answer to all my problems but all it did was create bigger problems. I don't have a question, but maybe my letter will help someone avoid my mistakes.”
“You're free to have your own opinion, but as far as I'm concerned, once you're dead, that's it. When we die, we're no different from an animal lying dead by the side of the road. The only life we'll ever experience is the one we're living right now. Life after death is just a myth.”
“What will we look like when we get to heaven? Will we wear white robes, for example, like I've heard some people say? And will we be able to recognize each other? I've always been curious about this.”
“As far as I'm concerned the most important thing about religion is following the Golden Rule and treating people kindly. After all, isn't that what Jesus told us to do? We'd have a lot fewer problems in the world if everyone did this, in my opinion.”
