Questions · Fresno, CA
Honest questions about Jesus, asked in Fresno.
No question is off the table here. Who is Jesus? He is the Christ, the Son of the living God (Matthew 16:16) — and what He offers is freedom, not religion (John 8:36). Below are straight answers to what people in Fresno actually ask, with the verses so you can check us.

Why these questions sound different in Fresno
Fresno feeds much of the country while farmworkers and their families often absorb heat, unstable hours, and long drives. Refugees, older neighbors, foster youth, and hospital families need practical help that honors work and protects dignity. Tower District, West Fresno, Southeast Fresno, and Pinedale do not share one identical story. Keep gatherings close to the people attending, learn local history from residents, and never use a neighborhood as scenery for ministry.
Fresno feeds much of the country while farmworkers and their families often absorb heat, unstable hours, and long drives. Refugees, older neighbors, foster youth, and hospital families need practical help that honors work and protects dignity. Jesus calls His followers to love as He loved (John 13:34-35). In Fresno, that can begin with one shared meal in Tower District, a ride from West Fresno, or a small table close enough to keep meeting.
