Is There Enough Evidence for God? | The Gospels | Luke 16:16–31

About this episode

Patrick discusses the evidence for God and the deeper issues of belief as revealed in Luke 16:16–31.

Why doesn’t more evidence always lead to belief? What does the story of the rich man and Lazarus reveal about our hearts? And what keeps people from listening to God? In today’s episode, Patrick shares how Luke 16:16–31 challenges the idea that lack of evidence is the problem and reveals that the deeper issue may be whether we truly want God to rule over us.
