From A to Z, you might get asked a wide variety of questions about the "way you believe" or "why you do like you do" or " why are you so fanatical." At the November 13th Bible study, we put our heads together and came up with just a few questions we've been asked personally or comments about living for Jesus. And along with the questions/comments, we found some great Biblical backup to the question.
I want to live for God - or I know living for God is right - but I'm too afraid of messing up.
