📚 THE BOOKS ARE HERE! JUST IN TIME! 📚
I am excited to announce that our WHY WE BELIEVE: Building a Knowledge-Based Faith books and Companion Study Workbooks arrived today! And the timing could not be better. We are preparing for our first Apologetics class at Chosen Ministries Christian Center this weekend!
This is more than another class. We are building believers who know WHAT they believe, WHY they believe it, and HOW to defend it.
WHY WE BELIEVE is built around 1 Peter 3:15 and takes us through critical areas of Christian apologetics, including:
• Why apologetics matters
• The reliability of Scripture
• How we got the Bible
• The case for God
• The historical Jesus of Nazareth
• The resurrection of Jesus Christ
• The problem of evil and God’s goodness
• Science and faith
• Christianity among the world’s religions
• Christianity and modern movements
• The reliability of the New Testament
• Responding to common attacks against Christianity
• Why we believe
• Why we go to church
And we are not stopping with reading!
The WHY WE BELIEVE Companion Study Workbook contains 168 questions, chapter-by-chapter exercises, True/False, Multiple Choice, Fill-in-the-Blank, Matching, and a complete Answer Key. The goal is not simply to read the information. We are going to study it, discuss it, test it, and learn how to use it.
Our generation is asking serious questions. Our children are encountering competing worldviews. Believers are being challenged about Scripture, Jesus, truth, morality, science, and the existence of God.
The Church must be prepared to answer. We are not afraid of questions.
We are preparing believers with answers.
“Always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you.” 1 Peter 3:15
