Middle/High Apologetics and Worldview Training class for homeschool students Welcome the apologetics and worldview training class. I am excited
about this year and look forward to working with you. We live in a world that is increasingly pluralistic
and hostile to the teachings of the Bible. By the end of the semester/year, your student will be better prepared to face that
world. To be tough-minded disciples, students must be able to articulate not just what they believe but why they believe it.
This class will prepare them to do that. I look forward to deepening our faith in our God with your son/daughter.
Here are the expected student outcomes for this class.
- Students will be able to better answer tough
questions from skeptical friends.
- Students will be able
to make a positive case for the following topics: Creation, the Bible, Jesus as Messiah and God, the Resurrection,
traditional Christianity, a biblical worldview, truth, the problem of evil and other apologetic topics.
- Students will be able to better articulate the basic teachings of Christianity.
- Students will be able to better analyze worldviews and help build bridges
toward truth.
- Students will learn questioning skills that will
allow them to skillfully and respectfully answer questions from skeptical friends.
