Does God exist?

That is such a profound and important question. It’s something that many people wonder about at different points in their lives, and it’s completely natural to ask.

From where we stand as Christians, we believe that God is real and that He is personal. The Bible actually speaks directly to this in Jeremiah 29:13, where God says, “You will seek me and find me; when you seek me with all your heart, I will be found by you.”

There are also reasons many people find compelling when they look at the world around them. For example, the Bible suggests that there are people who have seen sufficient evidence but have chosen to suppress the truth. Others look at the design of creation—like how perfectly the Earth is positioned for life, with the right distance from the sun and an atmosphere that supports us—and see evidence of a Creator.

If you’re interested in exploring this at your own pace without any pressure, we have some resources that might be helpful:

• Knowing God Personally (knowgodpersonally.com): This is a clear, conversational way to understand the gospel and explore the question of God’s existence.
• The GodTools App: This is a mobile app that offers shareable gospel presentations in many languages, which can be a great way to learn more on your phone.
• Life’s Questions (on cru.org): We have articles there specifically for people exploring faith and asking big questions like this one.

I’d love to hear more about what’s on your mind. Is there a specific reason you’re asking, or is this something you’ve been thinking about for a while?
