It takes Godly men to stand up and defend the Gospel…men like Frank Turek.

Dr Frank Turek has answered the call and is one of the leading Christian Apologists in the world and started a non-profit ministry called Cross Examined.

But what is a Christian Apologist? And why is Frank’s mission so critical to spreading and defending the Christian faith?

[taken from crossexamined.org about section]

CrossExamined.org is a non-profit ministry started in 2006 that conducts dynamic I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be An Atheist seminars on college campuses, churches, and high schools.

Led by Frank Turek and other Christian apologists, CrossExamined.org exists to address the problem that 3-out-of-4 Christian youth leave the church while in college, many because they are intellectually skeptical.

In addition to I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be An Atheist, CrossExamined.org presenters address other topics faced by young people today.

Coach Chris was honored to connect with Frank and discuss his book Stealing From God and unpack the 4-Point Case for Mere Christianity. Get ready for some knowledge!

 

"There was a spaceless, timeless, immaterial Being that brought the big bang into existence, I mean how else do you explain that space, matter and time had a beginning out of nothing?"

and

"You won't lie to make yourself look bad, right..the New Testament documents are filled with embarrassing details that the writers never would have invented.."

Dr. Frank Turek
