I’ve seen far too many Christians who are more than willing to travel halfway around the world to volunteer for a week in an orphanage, but who cannot bring themselves to take the personal risk of sharing Jesus with the co-worker who sits day after day in the cubicle right next to them.

For me, apologetics proved to be the turning point of my life and eternity.

Randomness produces fine-tuning 4. Chaos produces information 5. Unconsciousness produces consciousness 6. Non-reason produces reason. . . . The central pillars of evolutionary theory quickly rotted away when exposed to scrutiny.
