Excerpt for those not on Facebook:

"DOES GOD EXIST?"
The Barn Light (East) and Gospel Community Church are partnering to bring you a live debate between a christian and an atheist.

-Grab a drink!
-Support a local business!
-Ask questions during the Q and A time.
-Cover charge is purchasing a beverage of your choice. (The Barn Light has a wide selection of coffee, tea, wine, beer, and spirits) 

*We want this to be a community event that brings people from different backgrounds and world views into one room to discuss important matters. We are asking for the christian community to not invite more Christians but instead invite people/friends from a different perspective than their own. Same goes for the atheist community. In short, we would love this event to be diverse and not one sided.

**MAKE SURE TO RSVP (on Facebook) BECAUSE WE HAVE LIMITED SEATING!
