Have you ever had an experience that changed your opinion or attitude on something? I mean, you thought you knew all the facts—until you went through a situation that completely changed your mind. In this program, guest teacher John Dickerson will do that by sharing two powerful testimonies that’ll touch your heart.

1. ANCIENT evidence – historical writers (Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, etc.)
2. EXTERNAL evidence – an objective human record of Christ’s impact on humanity.
3. INTERNAL evidence – this is evidence that can only be known through experience.

• In life we get carried along by different currents: Popularity, achievement, material possessions, relationships
• These currents while alluring and momentarily satisfying, are actually taking us into anxiety and we can’t get out.
• You’ll never know for sure if the ‘current’ of Jesus will carry you to fulfillment unless you get into it.

• This “current” is the only one that brings salvation to anyone who believes.
• Jeremiah 29:13
• Matthew 11:28
• The fulfillment of Jesus is found in the space between religion and relationship.

The current moral decline and theological compromise among Christians is no longer concerning – it’s alarming. We see division and false teaching, even in the Church itself. What can those who care do? In this program, Chip explains how can we stand for biblical truth and winsomely communicate, even regarding controversial issues, with love and integrity - just like Jesus did.

• Yesterday: Apologetics were about what we believe and why. And it was aimed at answering the skeptic’s questions.
• Today: We need to aim apologetics first and foremost toward believers, especially young people.
• Yesterday: We needed to master facts, data, and history to intellectually prove what we believe is true.
• Today: We need to model a concerned and compassionate life-style that proves that what we believe is actually relevant.
• Yesterday: We needed to win the debate.
• Today: We need to win an audience.
• Yesterday: We communicated on a level playing field that presumed TRUTH was an objective reality.
• Today: We communicate on the shifting sands of TRUTH as a subjective reality.
• Yesterday: The Church and the culture shared a general knowledge of the Bible.
• Today: Both the Church and the world are biblically illiterate.
• Yesterday: Committed Christian men or women were admired.
• Today: Committed Christian men or women have been called “dangerous”.
• Yesterday: We could begin with the truth and then express grace.
• Today: We must begin with grace in order to share the truth.
