Apologetics conference offered Nov. 4-5

EULESS—A conference titled “Confident Christianity: Proclaiming the Certainty of Christ in an Age of Unbelief,” is planned Nov. 4-5 at First Baptist Church of Euless and will feature some of the top Christian apologists.

“You’d be hard pressed to find a better group of speakers,” said Bruno Molina, SBTC language evangelism associate and a certified apologetics instructor (CAI) through the North American Mission Board.

The conference is being jointly sponsored by the SBTC, Biola University in La Mirada, Calif., the Confident Christianity ministry and FBC Euless.

“I think Christians need to be better equipped to ask the right questions of people who are increasingly skeptical of truth claims, so that they cause them to examine what they believe and in turn have an opportunity to explain why Christians believe what they believe,” Molina said.

Speakers include philosopher and apologist J.P. Moreland of the Talbot School of Theology at Biola and the author of more than 30 books, and Craig Hazen, director of Biola’s master’s program in apologetics and editor of the philosophy journal Philosophia Christi.

Other speakers include Molina; Michael Keas, SWBTS professor of history and philosophy of science; Brett Kunkle of Stand to Reason; Mary Jo Sharp, a Houston-based apologist and frequent women’s speaker; Clay Jones, assistant professor of apologetics at Biola; Rudy Gonzalez, SWBTS vice president of student service and former director of interfaith evangelism at the North American Mission Board; and Melissa Travis, a biologist who is pursuing graduate apologetics studies at Biola.
