Out of all the problems that we are facing in our world today, what do you consider is our biggest problem and how do you think we can solve this problem?	Our biggest problem is world, violence. We need to spread the gospel of Jesus until he returns.
Do you think it is possible that you and I were put here on this earth for some kind of purpose? If so, what do you think that was? If not, why do you think so?	Of course. Our purpose is to reach as many people around the world and evangelize with them.

We live in a world that tends to believe, now more than ever, that all religions are equal and no one religion is better than another. In your opinion does it matter what someone believes?

All religions have different beliefs about the afterlife but many seem to indicate that we go to a better place, if we do the right things in this life. What do you personally believe about the afterlife and what do you think we need to do in this life in order to get to this better place in the next life?	I believe that there is a new heaven and that we will be going there the day Jesus returns. In the Bible, it says that the Lord is preparing a place for us. In order to enter heaven, we first and foremost have to believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins was buried, and rose again three days later. We can’t just stop there though we have to live a faithful life investing into the word of God, which is the truth, making sure to live by what it says, and most importantly, we need to not only keep it to ourselves, but share with others so that they too, can have the chance to enter the kingdom of heaven. We have to make sure we recognize our sin and ask for forgiveness every day because every day we sin.
If you do not believe there is life after this life is over, where do you think we came from?	I do believe there’s life after this one.
If you do not believe there is life after this life is over, why is it difficult for us to avoid believing in non-material things like truth, love, beauty, goodness, etc…?	I do believe there’s life after this one.
