Five Questions Pastors Get from Students

A friend recently texted me to say that he is doing some editorial work for a publishing company to produce a study Bible for students. He asked for a simple list of the top five questions (or types of questions) which I, as a pastor, hear from students.

Here is the list I sent him:

1.    How can I be content in singleness?

2.    How can I find/attract a like-minded Christian spouse?

3.    How can I be in the world but not of it?

4.    How can I learn orthodox doctrine and defend the faith?

5.  How can I develop and practice the spiritual disciplines (prayer, meditation, Bible study, etc.)?
