This week, Tripp Fuller joined me for a 'surprise' conversation... I literally had no idea what we were going to talk about or what Tripp wanted to tell me. Turns out, he wanted to reveal the top 8 most frequently asked "God" questions from a survey of 3,500 non-theologically trained people. We had a blast!
