Questions in this Episode

1. Is prayer pointless if God knows everything?

2. Do you believe that wine should be served at communion? I've been in 4 Christian protestant churches where only grape juice is served because they don't believe Jesus would've consumed alcohol. I believe Jesus did have wine. Also if wine is served, what about young people taking communion?

3. Why isn't church more like a Bible study where we can ask questions?

4. Why do so many Christians speak with condescension towards non-believers?

5. Is baptism essential for salvation?
