Course Description

The modern world is increasingly indifferent to the truth of Christianity. Yet the Christian faith holds the most compelling answers to many of the biggest questions, fears, and doubts many people have.

This track will help you understand why you believe what you believe, and it will equip you to communicate the truths of Christian belief for others.

The courses in the Christian Apologetics Track will teach you how to defend your faith against responses that range from hostile to indifferent. Gain an understanding of why Christianity offers reasonable and compelling answers for doubters and skeptics. Discover how to interact and engage with other worldviews. Help others navigate the challenging territory between faith and doubt. Learn the principles of evangelism, drawing from the latest insights from missiology, cultural contextualization, and storytelling best practices.

  • How to present the truth of Christianity clearly, cleverly, and persuasively
