I eat what’s good for me. I don’t stuff myself with junk food every day. I don’t put harmful substances in my body, such as drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. |

Even though I know God and He’s real in my life, how can I get a one-on-one, really close, personal relationship with Him? I have friends who seem to have it, and I envy them sometimes.

Does God really want us to go to heaven and be with Him forever? Won’t He get bored or tired of us?

Who’s going to be left behind when Jesus comes?
Pastor Steve Answers:
The wording of your question makes me wonder if you've seen the Left Behind movie or read the Left Behind book series. Both the movie and books were quite popular a few years ago, and they've shaped the way a lot of people think about what will happen when Jesus returns. |

Brandon’s sister was going and so were his cousins and aunt and uncle.
