Sermon: Where Are You?
Date: September 15, 2013
Series: Questions from God
Why would God ask questions? If he knows all things, He would not need to gain new knowledge from His people. However, there are a number of times in the Bible when God asks direct questions of His people.
This fall, we will explore times in the Bible when God asks questions of His people. We will see that the questions are not intended so that God can gain knowledge, but asked so that His people think about the answers.
