Questions and opinions about suicide and depression peppered the media this year after several prominent celebrities took their lives. And when Pastor Andrew Stoecklein died Aug. 25 after attempting to take his own life in his church, many Christians began to ask, “Do people who commit suicide still go to heaven?”
Dr. Russell Moore tackles this question with grace and biblical truth.
