Thanks for sharing, Bob! i think the more people share their struggles, the less there is a stigma. The evangelical church is HORRIBLE at dealing with people struggling with depression and/or mental illness. Love the analogy of feeling like you are from the moon some days! Pax, Adele

How do you reconcile an afterlife with people in the OT dying and not having heaven to go to before Jesus? Just curious what your thoughts are on this.

Thanks so much Jonathan! So true when you said, 'There are so many amazing people around us that we refuse to get to know or even try to understand because we've been taught a gospel of fear vs a gospel of welcome.' i agree and like how you said this!
