In this week’s episode, Pastor Steve Garcia is joined by Pastor Moises Bejarano to tackle five thought-provoking and challenging Bible questions sent in by listeners: Why do bad things happen? Does God let those bad things happen? “In the Old Testament, God promised the land to Israel as an everlasting covenant, though at times it seems tied to obedience. In the New Testament, Paul and Hebrews talk about the promise being fulfilled in Christ.

And connected to that, how do we know the Jewish people today are the same chosen people God made those promises to in the Bible?” How can you change someone's bitter mind about the church and Christianity? It can feel like there's no progress even after praying for them What are your thoughts about blessing items/relics? Is it wrong for my sister to invite our biological dad over to my mother and stepdad's house without their consent? Have a question you’d like answered?
