Have you ever encountered a neighbor who practiced a religion you didn’t understand? Join us as we examine major world religions and discover what those who follow them believe and practice.
Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect. – I Peter 3:15 NIV
