Opposition from the dominant secular, almost anti-Christian, minds of the university and larger American world seems to be growing and getting more strident. Witness Dawkin's, The God Delusion, Sam Harris's Letters to a Christian Nation and The End of Faith. Student Governments at Universities in the UK and the US denying recognition to Evangelical Christian student groups on the grounds of "discrimination".
How prepared are we to flourish as Christ-followers in this atmosphere? Further, how well equipped are we to even understand what to say and think in response to all this--and to do our work "as unto the Lord”?
Our time together will help us think and act more effectively as Salt and Light in today's academic world. Dr. David Cook and Dr. Stephen Moshier will help us better develop and speak from a Christian mind.
