What is truth? And why is it important?

Christianity says that truth can be known. Culture says that it can't. Christianity says that truth is absolute and culture claims that it's relative.

One thing is certain: Both cannot be true. Yet many believers do not have a adequate grasp of truth... nor are they "prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." (I Peter 3:15).

CCN invites you and your congregation and community into the very center of this dialogue led by the world's foremost Christian apologist, Dr. Norman L. Geisler.

Dr. Norm Geisler has spent more than five decades traveling the globe - training apologists and defending the Gospel. No one is better equipped to train your congregation to defend truth in today's culture.

According to Geisler, the problem with truth is this:

"We live in a relative culture and are proclaiming the absolute truth; we live in a pluralistic culture and are proclaiming an exclusive truth."

This program will tackle the tough questions:

• What is truth and can it be known?
• What is the real problem with truth today?

In his fast-paced, straight-talking style Geisler will also take a swing at the biggest objections to absolute truth:

• Mutism: There is no truth claim to be made.
• Mysticism: Reality is not subject to truth or falsehood.
• Subjectivism: Your truth is not my truth.
• Pluralism: All religions are true in part.

In response to popular mysticism, Geisler explains, "If they think something is true or exists, then we got 'em... Even the thought that there is no truth is a true thought."
