Hi Pastor Kerri! I went ahead and watched the Lee Strobel movie on Netflix and now I want to read the book! The Holy Spirit has been leading me to study the bible, in such a way, so I can defend my faith to others. We’ve had an influx of Jehovah’s Witnesses in my neighborhood, knocking on doors and God has given me the opportunity to share the real Jesus with them. (I wouldn’t recommend anyone doing that unless they are spiritually prepared, comfortable being challenged scripturally, and lead by the Holy Spirit.)
I have found that I have a passion for apologetics, to be able to defend my faith. It is really important for Christians to know how to stand up for what they believe and to be able to use scripture to back up their faith. So many people are swayed by others’ convictions but the bible teaches us to stand firm…
“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Ephesians 6:11NKJV

PK – this is HILAROUS!
“That’s amazing!” translation: I really don’t know how to respond to that statement/comment/story you just told me and I’m trying not to let my jaw hit the floor, so “That’s amazing” sounds pretty neutral

Hi PK! So cool you heard Lee Strobel at C3! When I was at Flagler College, and apart of InterVarsity, we had small groups to reach the seekers/skeptics called GIGs – Groups Investigating God. The big idea behind it was to invite people you were friends with/have some connection who where open to discussing spiritual topics to look at what the Bible says about who “Jesus/God” is and “Who am I?” We had many GIGs groups going on and it is a great strategy to gather the lost in a non-threatening environment and let the Word speak for itself. I can remember hearing the comment all the time of “the bible is full of contradictions” and asking the person, “okay, what contradiction are you talking about” and they couldn’t give me an answer — it was something they heard, but never really looked at the bible for themselves. People came to know Jesus thru our groups and it’s a powerful way to reach people!

Hi – I have read The Case for Christ, The Case for Faith (both on Netflix) and working on The Case for a Creator right now! EXCELLENT books, and the documentaries are great too (but like everything, the books are better!). I would recommend MERE CHRISTIANITY by C.S. Lewis and while you’re on it, check out THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS by Lewis. What is striking about Lewis’ work is that he was writing 70 years ago and it’s still relevant today. I feel lead by the Lord to read these books because I keep finding them at thrift stores! I just picked up REASONABLE FAITH. It’s as if God is putting those books out there for me to find. I feel that He is preparing me for something…

There is so much truth in this, I lost my father past May and it’s been hard to let that go , I have it burden down in my heart , I love what you said no tear is wasted , Lord knows I shed my share of them and sometimes I sit and have a good cry then I feel better as he worked for God all his life for 49 yrs in Ministry before leaving this world he has his Robe and Crown awaiting him I am sure. He loved God and people he reminds me of your husband at such a younger age. we really have enjoyed worship and service with Celebration this little story was opened close to my heart. I can’t began to say how much I enjoyed it . touching

I would love to have a group at Celebration that teaches these sorts of things! I believe fully but I never really know how to verbalize and defend it when someone who does not believe as I do questions me. Conveying that it’s something that you know to be true with the core of your being does not translate to someone who has never felt the Holy Spirit on the inside of themselves.
