Summary

No topic is off limits for the wise and witty Rev. Dr. Thomas Shepherd as he takes on some of faith's thorniest issues. In his own words, ¿Good Questions represents questions (not always friendly) and answers (not always ¿correct¿) drawn from more than 15 years of accumulated letters, notes and e-mails delivered to my Q&A column at Unity Magazine®.¿
