BIB-903: Apologetics for the 21st Century

Apologetics for the 21st Century
As citizens of the 21st Century, we are living in an age that is heavily influenced by a worldview that denies the reality of objective truth. The idea that the Bible represents absolute truths or holds any authority seems like a strange concept to many people. Many Christians do not feel prepared to interact with the questions contemporary people bring up in conversation.
