I would like Ken to produce a really hi-res version of this image so that we can make a poster from it and stick it on the wall (hint hint…….).

Lee Strobel: We’re on Cusp of Golden Era of Apologetics
A must-read for budding and established apologists here:
All of these trends have awakened a sleeping giant – Christian apologetics, or the defense of the faith. We’re seeing apologetics books on the New York Times bestsellers list. Schools like Biola University and its Talbot School of Theology, which are leaders in apologetics, are filled to capacity. Denver Seminary is launching a new degree in Christian Apologetics and Ethics this fall. One organization is seeking to place apologists on 500 college campuses in the next five years.
