Brothers Paul Cooke , Chris Wilde & Bob Henry sit down and share with us about their experiences of Christ at our fireside chat.

0:00 - Intro
2:05 - (Question 1) How do I share the gospel to someone that says all gods are the same? To them, even the God we believe in is just the same as the gods that they believed in.
13:30 - (Question 2) How do I explain to my friend that just being a good person isn't enough? Why does she have to be a Christian, and why can't she just live her whole life doing good deeds as an atheist?
26:34 - (Question 3) How do you respond in work environments when everyone around you is talking about sinful things? How do you avoid being judgmental? How can you be relatable and approachable?
45:16 - (Question 4) Many times, especially in these times we currently are in, I feel like praying for my personal needs/ feelings/ circumstances is not the prayer that the Lord needs, so I end up never praying about the things concerning me. (I feel really selfish when I do). But at the same time, we hear again and again the brothers encouraging us to converse with the Lord and to tell Him about everything. I know He cares for me, but how do these prayers actually meet His needs and help Him accomplish what He is after? Can you offer any fellowship about praying for personal matters and needs as opposed to praying for God's need? I also feel like prayers for God's need are really high prayers and I feel extremely short to pray such prayers. I have the sense that much authority is needed for such prayers, which I definitely lack. How can I pray such high prayers to cooperate with the Lord when I lack so much?
1:01:35 - (Question 5) How do you go through a situation where you and many other people are praying for something, or for someone, but the prayers are not answered? Sometimes, it seems like the Lord is silent, or He doesn’t answer the prayer in the way we are asking Him to answer. How do you deal with that?
1:11:22 - (Question 6) Can you speak on relationships with someone of the opposite gender? I am courting a brother who has several close female friends that he talks with frequently over the phone--he used to have feelings for one of his female friends and pursued her in the past. I don’t feel at peace with this, but he says I’m being too spiritual. Am I being too spiritual or legal? I really am confused about this.
1:20:35 - (Question 7) The brother I am courting wants to be more sexual and says he can’t go on without this--I don’t feel right about this, but I also don’t want to make him upset.
1:35:25 - (Question 8) Can you provide fellowship about addictions? How do you overcome them?
1:44:50 (Question 9 - Follow up to question 8) - In messages, we hear that the flesh never goes away. In struggles that we have, should we as believers actually think that we are going to overcome this thing, and that it will go away permanently? Or are there certain things that don't go away, and it’s something you have to flee from?
1:50:40 - (Question 10) I have heard it said that sufferings cause us to grow and mature in the divine life. Has this been your experience? Can you give us some examples from your life?
2:06:10 - (Question 11) How can those of us who are in the church life in Africa participate in the Lord's up-to-date move on the earth? There is a lot of fellowship in the ministry about the direction of the Lord's move being towards Europe and the Middle East. What part can Africa play in that?
