This episode contains bonus content from my interview with Esther Goetz. Listen to the original episode here! We discuss our faith, our source of hope, and how you can begin to investigate those topics for yourself. In this scary time of uncertainty with Coronavirus and Covid-19, I thought it was time to tell you about my faith, where my hope lies, and my view on death and eternity.

Thanks so much for listening to today's episode. I hope it gave you some food for thought, some hope, and some comfort!

If you have any questions for me, please leave a comment!

  • A great Bible app is You Version. It has plans for reading the Bible in a year, bible studies, and so much more!

And, you can search the episodes for whatever section of the Bible you are reading. No need to do it chronologically if you don't want to.
