Why Bad Things Happen

September 12, 2021

There's good news: God loves you!

In fact, God loves you SO much that Jesus Christ, God Himself, died for you.

He’s waiting eagerly for you to accept His free gift of life with Him.

But He won’t force you; it’s your decision to make.

What is your choice?
