~ A place to find answers to gnawing spiritual questions ~
Ever wanted to ask a minister a spiritual question but just didn't have the courage
to do it?
Well, here's the place to find answers to hundreds of questions already asked!
Answers were prayerfully prepared by a team
of
30 anonymous
ministers,
who
served as our
Chapel volunteers. (No, David Wilkerson did
not answer these
questions.)
