—The Seriousness of Being Lost
What does it really mean to be lost? It is sad that some people do not even consider the eternal state of their souls. However, this question is the most serious anyone could ever consider. Jesus said, "I am going away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin. Where I go you cannot come" (Jn. 8:21). In this verse, Jesus illustrates the seriousness of being lost. But what does it really mean to be lost?

3-Minute Audio Lessons
For April 26 through April 30, James Gravelle concludes his series, "Have You Ever Wondered About...?," discussing, "Evil, Pain, and Suffering."
"If God wants to prevent evil, and if He can prevent evil, then why is there evil, pain, and suffering in the world today?" The conclusion we are supposed to draw is that since evil, pain, and suffering do exist, then God does not! Ever wonder why there is evil, pain, and suffering in the world and in our lives? James does a wonderful job answering this argument.
Also, for May 3-7, James presents a 5-part series considering the question, "Have You Ever Wondered About God?" In these lessons, the nature of God is explored. Join James as he discusses the characteristics of God including omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience, love, justice, and mercy.
Many people have told us how much they are enjoying our calendar view, which makes these lessons easy to use as daily devotionals. Click and see what all the talk is about!

WE HAVE MORE QUESTIONS FOR YOU...
No, really, we do. In fact, we've got thousands of them! But wait. You don't have to answer all of them at the same time. And better still, you actually get to "pick and choose" the questions you want to answer! [Don't you wish you could have done that when taking tests in school?]
We're talking, of course, about the study questions that accompany the written transcripts of our video and audio presentations. When you visit the "Transcripts" section of our Website, you will find approximately 200 transcripts that have been specially prepared to accompany the video and/or audio lessons that also are available on our Website. At the end of each transcript you will find a single page of study questions. The number of questions varies with each transcript (according to the length of the questions themselves), but usually numbers somewhere between 14 and 21. All of the questions have been crafted from the content of the material in the lesson under consideration. The questions actually are intended to serve several different purposes. First, they are intended to reinforce in a person's mind the material discussed in the lesson under consideration. Second, they are designed to create additional discussion about the topic being examined. Third, they are meant to provoke further interest and study of that particular topic. Fourth, they are perfect for use in classroom or private-study situations. And so on.
There is an added benefit to using these study questions. In most cases, it would prove quite a challenge to try to answer the questions without having first viewed the video, listened to the audio, or read the transcript that the questions were designed to accompany. So, if you look at the video, listen to the audio, or read the transcript, think of all the Bible knowledge you will gain in the process. We do want to invite you to check out the study questions that accompany our written transcripts. We think you will find them to be a handy and convenient source of invaluable information that can help you in your study of God's Word.
