Questions in this Episode

1. My roommates in college find it weird when I have quiet time and read the Bible. Sometimes I feel insecure about their remarks and some of their questions, which makes me think that the Bible can't really stand up to their scrutiny. I know that's not right, but I'm not sure how to respond when that happens.

2. How do we respond to atheist critics who say that, "because Jesus said he was going to return 2,000 years ago, and he did not, it's safe to say that he will not be returning"?

3. In 2 Timothy 2:8, it refers to Jesus as being the offspring of David. But Joseph was from David's line, how he is the b
