Since the inception of the church of Jesus Christ, skeptics and non-believers have made critiques and challenges against Christianity. While the specifics have changed throughout history, time, and cultures, followers of Christ have always found a way to respond. This is the task of Cultural Apologetics—the church's gentle, respectful, and reasonable defense of the hope we have in Christ.
At Summit's Cultural Apologetics class, we are being equipped to respond to some of the challenges facing the church today in our current cultural moment, addressing claims such as Christianity is too rigid, too racist, too repressive, and too ridiculous. The aim is to train the church with a model of cultural engagement that will enable us to better represent the gospel to every man, woman, and child.
Below are resources for each session, including audio and video recordings, notes, and additional reading requirements.
