Graduation Requirement Grade 12 Full Year
This class covers a wide range of topics associated
with defending and evangelizing the Christian faith; from logic and
ascertaining absolute truth, to answering hard Bible questions. Many Christians
know what they believe, but have limited knowledge of why they believe it. Our
beliefs as Christians are not based upon a blind faith. We have countless evidences
that lead us to faith in the Bible and our salvation through the Lordship of
Jesus Christ. This course examines these concepts and equips the students to
defend their faith.
