If not, consider these three big questions: (1) Aren’t you glad for the restoration movement? (2) What is restoration anyways? (3) How am I to be a restorer in the twenty-first century?

These questions and more and answered by Dr. Kyle Hammonds and Jonathan Edwards as they process the issue together with the Scriptures.
