Life Before Life: We Lived Before This Life<\/h2>\n

\"life<\/a>Ever say, \u201cI think I know you from somewhere\u201d when you\u2019ve met someone familiar only to realize you haven\u2019t met in this life and it\u2019s definitely not that they just remind you of someone else? Ever felt a connection to someone who is a close friend that picked up so quickly that it seemed there\u2019d been another chapter in that story with you two written before meeting here? Those are common feelings.. Well, we\u2019ll talk about why in this short cast.<\/p>\n

Bible Verse:<\/strong> Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.<\/p>\n

Faith Quote:<\/strong> \u201cI do not feel that I am the product of chance, a speck of dust in the universe, but someone who was expected, prepared, prefigured. In short, a king whom only the Creator could put here; the idea of a creating hand refers to God\u201d (Jean Paul Sartre, life-long atheist philosopher).<\/p>\n
