B Apologetics – Is there a God? Who is Jesus? Etc.
Note from Don: “At the end of my very difficult graduate class on apologetics the very brilliant professor said “this class has been to give you Christian confidence not to convince the skeptic, so go with assurance share the Gospel for it is the power for salvation”. Therefore most of the time I ask “if I can answer all your questions would you repent and ask Jesus to be your Lord & Savior?”
