Christians and non-Christians all have questions about their faith. This course will examine important questions about our faith as we study Scripture to make our case for or against Christ. This introductory apologetics course, the study of defending one’s faith, will allow for a safe environment to discuss the struggles people have with their faith. Questions like “How can the Bible be true” and “Did Jesus really raise form the dead” will be just a couple of several of our topics we will discuss and defend.
