Can you believe it’s been twenty years since 9-11? In a few days, we will commemorate the Twentieth Anniversary of that awful day. In anticipation of this commemoration, the National Geographic Channel has put together a new documentary featuring recent interviews from survivors of the attack.

And for all of them, following what the science says continues to deepen their faith and make them more and more certain about Jesus.

There is a huge myth out there that I want to challenge. I know I’ve challenged it before. But I keep hearing it repeated. It keeps getting told, unchallenged, over and over again. And it’s deceiving millions. What is this myth? It’s that if you can follow the science, you can’t believe in Jesus.

Why is love? People ask all the time, what is love? But has it ever occurred to you to ask, why is love? Has it ever occurred to you to ask why there is such a thing as love, why it even exists, and, more importantly, why it holds such a primary place in our lives?
