“My wife walked out after 32 years because she said she wanted to have fun and I didn't make enough money. She's remarried now (a widower with lots of money) and I feel like such a failure. I know you'll say God can help me, but how?”
“Why do you say that all we have to do to have eternal life is to believe in Jesus? That sounds far too simple to me. Surely God expects us to live good lives before He'll let us into heaven, doesn't He?”
“I've asked God to forgive me for all the wrong things I've done, and I've even asked Jesus to come into my life, like you tell people to do. But how do I know God has really forgiven me? I don't feel any different.”
“I know the Bible says we ought to honor our parents, but how can I honor my father when he's disgraced our family by stealing from his company and has now ended up in jail? And he was only a couple of years away from retirement.”
“What do you think of a person who claims to be a Christian and goes to church regularly but is one of the worst gossips you've ever heard? I don't think much of it myself. She invited me to her church once and I almost laughed in her face.”
“How can I resist temptation? I'm being tempted to do something I know is wrong and could get me in a lot of trouble. But I still feel a strong tug to do it, and I don't know how to handle it.”
“Do you believe God has a plan for every person's life? I've messed up my life so badly that I can't even imagine God has any future for me. I'm in jail now, and the future looks pretty bad.”
“Sometimes I think I'm going to crack up. My husband is in the military in Iraq, and all I can think about is what might happen to him. I hope you'll encourage people to pray for everyone serving over there, and also for their families.”
“I know Satan is real, but does he have supernatural beings under his control the same way God does, with His angels? I've always been curious how Satan gets his work done, because he sure seems active.”
“Did God know all about us before we were born? And did He give our souls to us at some specific time? Or are they just part of our natural birth?”
“My wife has Alzheimer's disease and it has really been devastating to us. Now she doesn't even know me or our family. Why doesn't God let someone find a cure for this? Or for that matter, why does He let things like this even happen?”
“I wish I had a strong faith like you do. Sometimes I really believe, but then I seem to drift away and my faith grows very weak. Is this just the way it is for most people?”
