Studies on the Fringe of Christianity
In today’s world everyone is chasing after something, and for most people it is probably their own idea of pleasure, happiness, or prosperity. But, in reality, none of these attributes contribute to a deep sense of well being or contentment. Besides, chasing after wrong or hurtful things will only make us lonely or unhappy — …
Within each of us are networks of electrical and chemical channels that when stimulated, produce fear; this is a negative emotional feeling which is part instinct and part learned. We can even be scared when we are only imagining something, such as waiting for the results of a medical test or worrying about job security …
I’ve had a mysterious event happen in my life that I just don’t understand.

Once, when discussing the possibility of eternal life, someone asked me, “If Jesus died for our sins, how does that work? It’s illogical; it doesn’t make any sense.
