Summary
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner offers a number of brief, rhetorically powerful responses to the objection: "Being a Good Person is All That Really Matters." Doesn't God care more about your behavior than your religious beliefs? Why should anyone believe that God wouldn't simply honor good behavior instead of religious conviction? These Quick Shot responses are designed to help you remove intellectual obstacles when talking about God with your friends and family members. They are also available on the Cold-Case Christianity Phone App so you can access them as you are interacting with others.

| 1:00.4 | I think what's happening is the technology is making the changes for us. |
| 1:04.7 | And so while I know my mom for example would far rather me give her a phone call than |
| 1:09.6 | text her, which far rather her grandchildren call her than text her. I think she |
