You're listening to Greg and Amy on the hashtag STRask podcast.

0:16.6

So today, Greg, we have some questions about kind of objections to maybe from people who aren't Christians or, you know, some of these people are Christians, but they're the kinds of things you would get from people who aren't Christians.
