'God Questions' Campaign Boosts Christian Confidence

A new 40-day campaign is equipping churches with answers to the most commonly asked questions about God.

"The God Questions" campaign, just introduced this month, is based off a new book originally intended to enable Christians to invite friends to church. But pastors and co-authors Dr. Hal Seed and Dr. Dan Grider soon found that Christians were equally seeking answers to those widespread God questions that their friends were.

"Everyone has these questions about God. What we hadn't anticipated was how much the Christian in the church needs these answers," said Seed, lead pastor of New Song Community Church in Oceanside, Calif.

Studies have shown that one of the major reasons Christians do not share their faith is because they feel ill-equipped. Scott Dawson, author of The Complete Evangelism Guidebook surveyed more than 6,000 Christians on the matter of why people are not sharing their faith and the most frequent responses he received were ignorance and fear.
