About US
The mission of Overland Apologetics is to provide people with opportunities to unplug and explore God’s Creation while learning to critically evaluate their Faith and Trust in Jesus Christ.
Apologetics
A question I receive regularly regards the definition of Apologetics. Before answering that question, let’s address some bigger questions. At some point in life, everyone will wrestle with at least four very fundamental questions.
Four Fundamental Questions
- Where did everything (including me) come from?
- Does life have objective meaning, value or purpose?
- Is there such a thing as objective Right And Wrong?
- What is the outcome of everything?
Every person asks these questions. Why?
Because there has to be more to life than the contemporary narratives pushed on humanity. In the heart of every human being there is a desire to understand their value and purpose.
So, Why Is Apologetics Important?
The Logical Approach
Consider the following equation: 6 + 32 x 4 + (6 / 3).
How would you solve it? Does GEMS or PEMDAS ring a bell?
Order of operations
Just as there is an order of operations for solving math equations, there is a strategy involved in addressing questions about the meaning of life. If you fail to follow the order of operations you may end up with the wrong answer. I’ve found the best approach to apologetic study is to use a systematic path.
- Objective truth exists and can be known.
- God Exists
- Miracles are possible
- The New Testament is historically accurate
- Jesus rose from the dead proving He was God
Overland Apologetics is simply following in the path laid out by the apostles who used apologetics to strengthen their faith, encourage one another, introduce others to God and influence culture to recognize the truth. We are Christian because Christianity is true and there are solid reasons and solid evidence to believe it’s true.
Simply put – Christianity is the best explanation for reality.
