Does the scientific evidence fall short of proving the fine-tuning of the universe? Should Christians regularly “feel God’s presence”? And since there are minor differences in the Gospels, does that disprove biblical inerrancy? In this midweek podcast episode, Frank tackles three more BIG questions from our listening audience along with questions like: What are the 3 levels of fine-tuning and does it only occur here on planet Earth? Can the fine-tuning argument alone actually prove Christianity is true? And can all truth be explained through science? Where exactly are Heaven and Hell? What’s the true meaning of Christmas? Is loving God an emotion, a feeling, or a decision? If God chooses not to reveal Himself to us is that proof that He doesn’t exist? What’s a great question to ask…
