“Why do Catholics believe wine becomes blood?”
How do I help my Catholic friend who believes every communion becomes the body and blood of Christ? What is the difference between your soul and your spirit? My mother died two weeks ago, and I wonder if she is already with God or has to wait. Can you explain that?
“I feel guilty for not doing more…”
What is the real point of “where two or more are gathered”? I wonder if God is convicting me about how I spend my free time. Should I be more devoted to Him? My brother passed away, and I don’t really understand whether he was with God right after his death, or waiting for his […]
“I wonder if God hates me!”
How are we “present with the Lord” when we die yet “the dead in Christ will rise first”? How can we be seated at God‘s right hand if we are even closer than that by being united with Christ? Somebody told me we should be thankful for everything, including the Nazi regime. That can’t be […]
“What did Jesus write in the sand?”

“I told my brother to take up his cross!”
I told my brother to “deny himself” and “take up his cross” and be part of the family more. Was I in the wrong? Are we with God immediately when we die or do we need to wait? Why does Paul talk about the “foolishness” and “weakness” of God in 1 Corinthians 1?
“Why don’t we always feel God?”
Can I give publicly or should I only give in secret? What is the context of the Sermon on the Mount? Why don’t we always feel God‘s presence? Do we go to be with God immediately when we die?
Are you gaining or losing rewards?
Thank you for sharing the grace message! Many Bible teachers say we can gain or lose rewards in Heaven through what we do. How did you come to believe we all get the same in Heaven? My brother passed away, and now I wonder where he is. Did he go straight to Heaven? Or does […]

How do we read the Old Testament in light of the New? If upon death, we’re immediately present with the Lord, then how is it that “the dead in Christ will rise first”? Are those who kill, quarrel, and fight believers or unbelieving Jews in James 4?
