NewIf you believe there is

Mon, 02/13/23

If you believe there is absolute truth and you believe God has that absolute truth, then why would 30% not want their kids to follow that truth? Now I understand that my kids may not have the exact position on every point of doctrine that I have, but if they are evangelical, then we will have similar religious beliefs. I want that because I want them to have truth.
