Preparing to Defend Your Christian Faith in Today’s Hostile Environment - Pasi Turunen

In today’s world, Christians are bombarded by questions on difficult topics ranging from same-sex marriage to bioethics to suffering to God’s existence. Each encounter is different. How can we overcome nervousness so that we don’t “freeze” when the moment comes? How do we present our case in a hostile environment effectively? In this practical session, we explore biblical strategies, the power of prayer, real-life examples, and helpful tips that come from decades of experience. The goal is to help ordinary Christians lovingly and prayerfully defend their faith in any public setting.
