No one denies that our lives contain struggles of sorrow and pain. Why does evil, pain, and suffering exist in our world? Why is it present in our lives? As one of the most significant arguments against God’s existence, in both its personal impact and widespread consideration, this class focuses on the moral foundations of these undeniable issues to see that it shines a light on God’s existence not absence.

Much of our lives are structured by considering the contrast between correct and incorrect, true and untrue, and what is right or wrong. These comparisons are needed, but why are we able to make such evaluations? We also make moral evaluations on a regular basis. How are we personally, or even as a society, able to make moral evaluations? Join Branyon May in considering these questions as they relate to the moral argument for God’s existence.

The design argument does not just say, “God did it, now let’s stop learning.” Instead the presence of design demonstrates that we should expect logical processes and repeatable outcomes with their end results being purposeful. In this class, Branyon May looks at various categories and examples of design to help identify how extensively the natural world is designed.

Not only are we surrounded by a Cosmos full of material, but we exist as part of multiple, grand, functioning systems. These systems form the basis for how the stars and planets move, why Earth is able to support life, and the behavior of every single fundamental particle. Seeing physical matter follow regular processes demands the question, “what is the origin of these processes and natural laws?” Join Branyon May in evaluating whether design exists and what it implies about the Designer.

Our everyday lives provide clear understanding that cause and effect is a principle that the entire material world obeys. As we consider that there are only three simple choices for the origin of the Cosmos, our observations help us understand that only created origin is fully consistent. Join Branyon May as he considers the consistent application of observations to understand the characteristics of the Creator.
The Cosmos or Universe is a word used to describe the entire physical existence that surrounds us. Observations of this existence lead us to ask a fundamental question, “How did it come to be?” Join Branyon May as he introduces this first line of reasoning, the Cosmological Argument, beginning to provide reason and logic to answer this question.

In considering the Evidence for Christianity, we must consider whether an apologetic approach is authorized or desired by God. In this second lesson to introduce our study, we will consider both objections that have been presented to an apologetics approach, but also biblical examples and direct commands. Follow along as Branyon May details the Bible’s case for sanctifying the Lord God in your hearts to “always be ready to give a defense.”
