## Resource

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/30/26), Hank discusses the advantages and blessings of being part of the CRI Support Team. Hank also expands on and defines four groups of people associated with CRI: Support Team members, donors, occasional givers, and non-giving listeners. Hank also answers the following questions: I have an associate who thinks the Church of Christ is the only church and that other churches are false. What are your thoughts on this? Venice - Bakersfield, CA (4:07) How can Jesus be listed as a descendant of Joseph in the Bible? Leia - Charlotte, NC (7:03) Must we tithe only to a church, or does it not matter as long as it is going to God’s kingdom? Andrew - Moore, OK (15:42) Is the creation account in Genesis chapter 1 literal, or is it an allegory? Are the accounts of the fall and the flood literal? Mark - NC (20:18) Can we infer from the Bible that man has been around for thousands of years, not millions of years? Mark - NC (23:53)
