A School of Christian
Apologetics
January 11-16, 2009
Defend
The Faith is the first in a series of events designed by the Institute
for Christian Apologetics to help equip students, scholars, and lay
persons to defend the Christian faith. Defend the Faith is a
week-long school (January 11-16, 2009) where students can hear from top
evangelical apologists and communicators. Seminary students and some
college students can earn
up to 6 hours of course credit.*
The event, hosted by New
Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in New Orleans, Louisiana, will
feature evening lectures from popular apologists, worship, and breakout
sessions. Seminary students and Baptist college students may qualify
for accredited coursework that corresponds with the event.
