Matthews, N.C.—Southern Evangelical Seminary will host its 18th annual National Conference on Christian Apologetics on October 28-29, 2011 at Northside Baptist Church in Charlotte , N.C.
The conference will offer attendees the top speakers in America who will bring new insights on the issues Christians face in our country—in schools, businesses, the marketplace and in all aspects of life.
“Every day in the news, we see innumerable reasons why Christians today need to learn how to defend our faith intelligently and reasonably,” said Eric Gustafson, Director of Development at the Southern Evangelical Seminary. “The National Conference on Christian Apologetics has always offered the opportunity to learn from America’s experts on defending the faith, and this year, our 18th year of the conference, will be another chance to immerse ourselves in biblical truths and relate them to the myriad of events that are taking place in our country. Opportunities are endless when it comes to learning and applying Truth to our world and rationally explaining these truths to those who have questions about Christianity and the world at large.”
