Many thanks to Pastor Paul Rummage and the people of Bartlesville (Okla.) Southern Baptist Church for hosting “Be Ready Always: An Apologetics Workshop” May 2-3. I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to return to my “home church” where 25 years ago the people there loved me into the kingdom of heaven and gave me the privilege to serve as deacon and associate pastor. Great attendance for all five sessions — a clear marker of the church’s spiritual depth and evangelistic heart.

For those unable to attend, I am attaching the workbook of supplementary materials. Special thanks to Debbie Strobel for building the workbooks; to Mike and Vickie Benzin for their hospitality (and introducing me to NHL hockey in high-definition TV); to Paula Young for the photographs; and to everyone who invested their time in a weekend of in-depth study. May the Lord bless you all!
