You will hear from a few of the top apologists and philosophers Craig Hazen, John Bloom and Alan Shlemon speak on topics such as arguments for the existence of God, why archaeology is important today and how Christians should respond to homosexuality. There will even be a time of Q&A! This is an event you will not want to miss. Register today for this special conference.
