Apologetics Resources

All content is from our Apologetics Conference held on October 12, 2024

Is Biblical faith really a belief without evidence? Is there a tension between faith and science? In an increasingly skeptical world, believers are going to encounter more and more questions from our neighbors, colleagues, and even family members.

Perhaps someone has asked you a hard question you that weren't prepared to answer. Perhaps you've wondered about some of these questions yourself! Through the study of apologetics we can work through some of these challenges that an unbelieving culture will raise, and move through the chaos and into clarity!
