Apologetics Class

“…In your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.”
– 1 Peter 3:15 (ESV)

John Long begins a new LifeGroup on Apologetics on Wednesday, January 4th at 6:30 p.m. in high school room 307.

In this 8-week study, we’ll look at the Cosmological Arguments, Moral Law, Miracles and New Testament reliability.  

The goal is to help you come to an understanding that in our present culture, Christianity is an intellectually viable option.  We live in a culture that believes more and more that Christianity is for the uneducated and the superstitious.  The class will help strengthen the your faith, solidify a new converts decision and help the prayer warrior understand the prayer needs of the crumbling culture.
