Why You're Doubting God's Goodness Part 2 - The Devil's Tricks
The enemy's lies have become prevalent among the people of the world, and some Christians buy into them and wonder about the goodness of God. I know this because I was one of those people. One particular lie from the enemy that I'd love to expose is that you only become Christian if you live in the Western world, or if a human being has told you about Jesus…

Why You're Doubting God's Goodness Part 1 - Idolatry
