Do you know where you found these statistics? I'd love to use the for an upcoming message, but would like to cite where they came from. Thanks!

A bug zapper is like sin, because us as humans are sometimes attracted to the light like the bug is, just like the bug goes toward the light, we are some attracted to something that we know is not right. The light represents sin and the bug represents us.

I love it when God moves through a series. Do you podcast??
