267: C.S. Lewis - It is no good asking for a simple religion
September 18, 2022 |
Does God Care Whether We’re Good or Bad?

Do we have free will, and why would God give us free will if he knew we’d eat from Eden’s tree? What does conscience have to do with our relationship with God and one another?
