Ten Obstacles in Sharing Our Faith (Part 1): THINK|26 Session 2

Written by Rebecca McLaughlin on

Many people have honest questions about Christianity, and many Christians feel unsure how to respond. In these sessions, we will look at ten common obstacles that stop faith conversations before they begin. Drawing from the book Confronting Christianity, this two-part session will show how these objections can open real dialogue instead of shutting it down. Join Rebecca McLaughlin as she discusses the reality of suffering, the complexity of sexuality, the desire for diversity, the success of science, and how other seeming roadblocks to faith become signposts. Jesus becomes not a relic from the ancient world, but our modern world’s best hope.
