Apologetics Workshops

An Apologetics 101 workshop was held July 30-31, 2010, at Brentwood (Tenn.) Baptist Church.

Apologetics 101: Learning to Defend the Christian Faith, an 11-week study, was held January – March, 2010, at Brentwood Baptist Church.

Apologetics 101: Learning to Defend the Christian Faith was held July 25, 2009, at Brentwood Baptist Church. This introductory course featured four sessions: 1) What is apologetics? 2) How do I know the Bible is true? 3) Who’s the real Jesus? And 4) How can I counter false teachings? Thanks to the 60-plus people who devoted a Saturday morning to this study. If you were unable to attend, you may download a free set of study notes in pdf format. The course will be offered in an expanded 10-session version on Wednesday nights beginning in September.
