ABOUT
CURRENT ISSUES, TIMELESS TRUTHS
Our approach to Apologetics/Worldview focuses on classic faith questions, cultural topics, and false ideologies that Christians are most likely to encounter. We emphasize inspiring and training the Everyday Apologist within the local Church. In addition, we give opportunities to new apologists by platforming them alongside nationally known, professional apologists, authors and scholars.
“If we are going to be wise, spiritual people prepared to meet the crises of our age, we must be a studying, learning community that values the life of the mind” - J.P. Moreland
