We should never be afraid to ask questions and seek answers when we are faced with doubts, confusions or challenges. To that end, Liberty Hill periodically holds open forum Q&A events where those in attendance can ask any question, which will then be addressed by Pastor Marc and other guest panelists present.
For up to date links and postings from the Q&A Events, visit www.HeyPastor.org.
The events are presented below with an embedded media player and links to the individual questions below that. Check back often, as the questions are generally posted over time due to the time involved in editing each individual question from the master video. Questions are posted as they become available.
