    Where Is God?

    Contributed by John Covell on Oct 17, 2001
    based on 44 ratings
     | 5,600 views

    God says we need him and, even though we might not often think of it in these terms, we wish we didn’t need God. We don’t want to need God.

    A few weeks ago, I was given a list of 75 questions asked by our elementary kids about God.

    While no one can come to Jesus unless the Father draws him, it’s also clear that Christianity does not require a "leap of faith" to believe.

    Sanctified by the Truth TCF Sermon March 5, 2006 In what some commentators call His high priestly prayer, in John chapter 17, Jesus prayed for His disciples, and for us.
