You are meeting a friend for coffee at your local Barnes and Noble. This friend is skeptical about Christianity and the Bible. During the course of the conversation your friend says, "The Bible is really just a bunch of stories that are designed to help people cope with life in the real world. They give you something to do so that you feel better about your place in this crazy world." Based on the material from Chapters 1-5 in Everyday Bible Study (both text and videos), how would you respond to your friend? Remember to you support your answer using material from Everyday Bible Study and the Scriptures. You may find the material in Chapters 1 and 5 most helpful for creating your response.
