Question from a reader:
I’m very discouraged as we have been trying to adopt for quite some time and keep facing major setbacks, especially related to finances. Do you have any words of encouragement?
Question from a reader:
What is your opinion of church leadership preventing the congregation from being exposed to the truth of abortion through the use of pictures?
Question from a reader:
On page 341 of If God Is Good (regarding Galatians 6:7) you say: “A man reaps what he sows. What goes around comes around means the same thing.” But I think verse 7 is often lifted out of context and applied to reaping in this life. But verse 8 shows that Paul is not saying “What goes around comes around”, but is referring to the eternal harvest we reap: “He that soweth to the flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the spirit shall reap life ever-lasting.”
I believe “what goes around comes around” refers to things in this life, but this passage speaks of the eternal harvest we reap.
Question from a reader:

In this 24-minute audio, Randy talks with Wayne Shepherd and shares, among other things, his story of coming to faith in Christ.
Question from a reader:
I am reading If God is Good. On page 155, Randy implies that the 'war in Heaven' in Revelation 12:7 is past (he uses the word "accomplished"). This seems to jive with the words of Jesus in Luke 10:18 where He says He "saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." Some writers place the Rev. 12:7 'war in Heaven' as yet in the future. Which is it? Past event or a future event?
Recently, I retweeted a quote from John Piper. He wrote, “So much deep, heart-wrenching sorrow of regret among 60 somethings. I plead with you under 40: Preempt this!” I believe Piper's point is just another way of saying live wisely today, and you will save yourself from regrets.
