I'd like to try to cover the topics people always seem to want to know about; if there's something you want me to talk about, email me.  There's a link at the bottom.

Some of my favorite verses: (all are NIV unless specified)

Romans 8:38-39-- For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Revelations 2:5a (New Living Trans.)-- Think about those times of your first love (how different now!) and turn back to me again and work as you did before;

Philippians 4:13 (I honestly don't know which trans. this is, but they're all pretty close anyhow)-- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Job 13:15-- "Though He slay me, yet will I hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face." (***this was after Job had pretty much lost everything, and people were asking him why he still believes in God even though he took away everything)

Acts 5:38-39-- "Therefore in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting agiainst God" (***the man speaking was a teacher of the law who was considered honorable to all the people, adressing the fact that the apostles were ordered not to teach the word of God but were doing it anyway.)

Acts 5:41-- The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name [of God]. (***They had been beaten after the words of the man in the above verse convinced the other men, including the high priest, not to kill them.)

Some evidence for His existence:

1: When a supergiant star dies, it implodes, and the physical matter collapses. There is so much gravity still present that all the matter collapses into itself and forms a black hole. There is enough gravity that none of the matter can ever escape-- not even light particles.

2: The accepted theory for the origin of the universe is the Big Bang theory. (There is some very good evidence for this theory.) Basically, it says that all the matter in the universe exploded from a single point. The unspoken is that the only known single point that could have that much matter is a black hole.

3: If we take these two statements as having the same credibility, there is one conclusion: the only way for all the matter (which had been seemingly sitting there since the beginning of time) to explode in one major event would take a preexisting outside force, because an explosion is an effect, which requires a cause. My conclusion: God.

Another take on the subject:

Let's start with a look at machines.  Machines have orderly, interdependent parts.  These parts, say, the parts of a car, must have an intelligent designer; it needed to be invented, needed someone to originally create an engine and design how it would work.  After that, it needed to be put together.  I can't throw hundreds of metal parts at each other and get a BMW, even if all the parts are there.  (And even the parts needed to be made by somebody.)  It's the same reason that can openers don't grow on trees.

The world too has order.  It has regularity, like the sun coming up each day, and season following season.  It has interdependent parts, and without one part, the others would not be able to function-- like the ecosystem.  The human body is also a very intricate system, made of particular organs that all need to function for any of the rest to stay alive; these are made of smaller parts, cells, that have interdependent parts, and are made of even smaller particles that are dictated by millions of combinations of chains that are made of just four chemicals.

The world, along with the human body, and their parts are like the machines we talked about, and the world therefore must have a designer as well.  This designer, again, would have to be God.

The Nature of God and Suffering:

I see this topic come up again and again in many circles-- whether the presence of evil disproves the existence of an all-good, all-powerful God.  Many say that it does; they think that if evil exists, then either God isn't all-good and likes to see us suffer, or else He can't do anything about the evil that exists, and is therefore not all-powerful.

Now, there are those that will argue that the reason He would allow suffering is free will, basically saying that without free will, we would not be able to freely love Him.  I think this is an important part of the issue, but I don't think it completely covers it, because it doesn't account for things like natural disasters and early childhood diseases.  To me, suffering seems a necessary part of life because it's part of what makes us human.  Pain and struggle and loss are necessary for us to realize our true humanity.  Pain builds character; it generates strength of will, unflinching acceptance of the truth, determination to go on and to prevail, rising above the petty and the trivial, and rejecting of self-pity.  It makes us more steadfast and reliable.  Having to overcome teaches you best how to continue to overcome.  The people who have gone through hardship are the people we can count on in an emergency, but not only that, we can look up to them.  They have gotten true wisdom from their struggle.  While suffering itself is not inherently good, it makes genuinely human life possible.  To go through life having had to struggle for something is far more fulfilling in the end, because you come out stronger and wiser, and you know you deserve what you worked for.
