In a world filled with messages, telling us what is right, what is wrong, and even questioning whether there is a right or wrong, where do you turn for answers? And more importantly, where can you find the right answers? Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6) and then he proved it by being the only person in history to raise himself from the dead. The answers to all of life’s difficult questions can be found in God’s love letter to humanity, the Bible. Let’s take a journey of discovery together and explore God’s roadmap to navigate this complex and confusing adventure called life.
