The Bible declares that God’s goodness exceeds our wildest dreams. We’d all love to believe that, but skeptics have a list of reasons that it can’t be true. Rather than ignoring the skeptics’ argument, join us in honest and courageous conversations about some of life’s hardest questions. A new confidence in the goodness of God will arise in each of us!

2 Peter 3:9-13 (NIV)
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.
Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.
