Christian parents need help from the Body of Christ, as we work to ground our kids in the historic truths of Christianity. I work full time for an apologetics ministry and I know without a doubt that I need help in this area. It's vital our kids see not only mom and dad as models of thoughtful Christianity, but have other examples, as well. Thankfully, there are more and more good worldview and apologetics training opportunities around the country for our students, led by incredible people. Check them out and get your students signed up:
- Impact 360's Immersion (near Atlanta, GA): June 1-14
- Faith Ascent Ministries Base Camp (near St. Louis, MO): June 9-13
- Summit Ministries – Biola University (in Southern California): June 15-27
- Summit Ministries – Bryan College (Dayton, Tennessee): July 6-18
- Wheatstone Academy – Azusa Pacific Univeristy (Southern California): July 6-12
- Stand Your Ground Youth Apologetics Conference (Charlotte, NC): July 14-18
- Wheatstone Academy – Houston Baptist University (Houston, TX): July 20-26
- Pennsylvania Family Institute's "City on the Hill" Conference (Lancaster, PA): July 20-26
- Summit Ministries – Manitou Springs (near Colorado Springs, CO): Seven two-week summer conferences starting May 18 and running through August 29
And of course, all of this activity culminates in the premeire youth conference of the year: Stand to Reason's reTHINK Student Apologetics Conference on September 26 and 27 in Orange County, California. Okay, maybe I'm a bit biased...but you still won't want to miss reTHINK.
Nothing in Canada?

Barring the Lancaster fnc there is nothing in the Northeast. Sort of -
Apparently Ravi Zacharias was in Syracuse, NY a few days ago and the church where he was at was apparently not that big. The line stretched out from the church all the way to route 81 - about a mile and a half.
This shows that there is a great need and a great demand for Apologetics Conferences and the like in the Northeast and in other secular parts of the country.
The impression I get is that - barring California - quite often you will get these conferences in Bible Belt areas, not in other secular parts of the country where people are dying for such things.
