Synopsis

Explore and discuss the top 10 most difficult questions raised against Christianity.

You may be skeptical of Christianity yourself. You may have grown up in the church and never questioned your beliefs. You may be somewhere in the middle or unsure where you stand.

But wherever you are, this ten-session study guide (DVD/streaming video sold separately) is designed to take you and your group through the biggest questions people raise against God and the Christian faith.

Based on the explorations of his book, The Problem of God, Mark Clark uses an engaging mix of theology, philosophy, science, and story to investigate the essential questions that weigh on the human mind: God's existence, the veracity of the Bible, evil and suffering, hell, sex, hypocrisy, exclusivity, and the claims of Jesus.

This video-based study is designed to be experienced in a group setting or any small gathering. Throughout the ten sessions, you'll take part in a number of activities, including:

• Watching the video teachings from Mark (The Problem of God Video Study, sold separately).
• Group discussion questions.
• Written responses and personal reflections.
• Scripture readings and prayers.

The Problem of God Study Guide provides a safe space to wrestle intentionally with the questions, the ideas, and the evidence—and, ultimately, to wrestle with faith and doubt.

Sessions include:

1. The Problem of Science
2. The Problem of God's Existence
3. The Problem of the Bible
4. The Problem of the Christian Myth
5. The Problem of Evil and Suffering
6. The Problem of Hell
