We’re being bombarded by a variety of conflicting religious claims and ideas, while faith in general is increasingly under attack by those who don’t believe in God at all. How can we weigh all of these confusing messages, reinforce our Christian beliefs, and become more confident that we’re standing on the solid bedrock of truth?
Join us for this special CCN outreach event, hosted by Lee Strobel and featuring Mark Mittelberg, author of the powerful new book, Choosing Your Faith. This live broadcast is designed to strengthen the faith of every Christian, and be a place to bring people who are sorting out what to believe.
"As [Mark] brilliantly describes, all of us take different pathways in our journey of spiritual discovery. Whether we realize it or not, we're influenced by a myriad of factors, some which take us toward the truth, while others simply lead us into confusion," says Lee Strobel.
In this engaging program based on his recent book, Mark reveals the six paths of faith formation. Seekers will receive practical guidelines for navigating the many conflicting and contradictory claims about spirituality. Christians will also gain helpful insights into their own spiritual styles and beliefs -- and receive tools for communicating their faith to others.
"Lots of religious people hold firmly to all kinds of religious ideas - whether right - or wrong - for all kinds of weak and apparently unfounded, or at least unexamined reasons," says Mark.
Your congregation will learn how to:
- Assess the six faith paths.
- Examine the evidence.
- Identify the barriers to belief.
The program includes an interactive Q & A time with Mark and Lee, who will respond to your questions (which you can email or fax in during the event). Invite your community as a way to encourage friends and neighbors to consider—and choose—faith in Christ.
