I was playing around on my boyfriend's computer the other day, and I accidentally pulled up a list of the Web sites he'd been on recently. I was shocked, because some of them were hardcore porn sites. He admitted he visits them but says it shouldn't hurt our relationship. Is he right?
I'm really getting scared (although I try to not show it), because I graduate from high school in a few months and I don't have any idea what I'm going to do next. My parents are pushing college on me but I can't get excited about it. What should I do?
Why did Jesus deliberately put Himself in the way of harm, when He knew His enemies were planning to put Him on trial and kill Him? Wouldn't it have been better for Him to go into hiding, or something like that?
Do you think they'll ever find Jesus' grave with His bones in it? I respect my Christian friends who say this can't happen because Jesus came back from the dead, but I'm studying to be a doctor, and I know that once someone is dead nothing is going to bring them back to life.
I know I've lived a very sinful life, but a friend of mine says God will forgive me if I'll just believe in Jesus. What difference would that make? And how would I know if I was really forgiven? I don't want to have to wait until I die to find out if it's true.
A friend and I got to talking about religion the other day, and I found out that he believes in all sorts of ideas I'd never heard of before (like contacting people for guidance who have been dead for hundreds of years). Do you think he's sincere, or is he just trying to be different?
I've fallen in love with a woman I work with, and I sincerely believe God brought us together. But my wife got very upset when she found out and I told her I wanted a divorce. How can I make her understand that it's God's will for us to get divorced and move on with our separate lives?
I volunteer several times a week in a homeless shelter our church supports, but I get very discouraged because it doesn't seem like we're making any progress. We just keep seeing the same people over and over. I'm about to give up. Why should we bother?
Can you give me even one reason to believe in life after death? I think all the evidence is on the side of those who believe this life is all there is. As far as I'm concerned, we might as well live it up and make the most of it while we can. How would you respond?
My grandmother was a very religious person, and she always listened to you whenever you came on television. I guess I've always thought that this was fine for her but it wasn't for me, but now the doctor says I have breast cancer, and I'm scared. How can I get the kind of faith she had?
My extended family is fairly large, and it's like a soap opera. You name it, it happens—affairs, divorces, rehab, kids in court, etc. How can I help them? I'm the only Christian in the family as far as I know, but to be honest, sometimes I wish I could just wash my hands of them.
Does God give up on us sometimes? I'm afraid He has abandoned me, and I guess I can't blame Him because I know I've let Him down and been a big disappointment to Him. Is it too late to get things right?
