Dads and Babies!

I was wondering about that!

Didja ever hear a question asked about the Bible, and find yourself thinking, “I was wondering about that”, because you have had the same question? Well, this evening during our regular prayer meeting time, we’ll be having another of our Bible Talks with the Elders, where we attempt to answer, from Scripture, questions posed. We have a small number of questions for this evening, and so we could use a few more. Bring your questions and join us at 6:30!

We don’t have all the answers, but we try to bring the Bible to bear on every question submitted. You…
