S3E2 – Pie In The Sky When You Die? (Gen 13-14)
I chat to a lot of non-religious students on campus who think there probably is some kind of God, but even if there was, it wouldn't make any difference to this life now. Is that true? If the Christian God is real, does that have an impact on life now? Or is it all just… Continue reading S3E2 – Pie In The Sky When You Die? (Gen 13-14)
