Join us at 6:30pm for a free dinner and fellowship before the service starts at 7pm!

This talk is based on Dr. Valdes book “How To Think” and introduces the audience to the importance of critical thinking. It addresses Critical Thinking Principles as well as obstacles to Critical Thinking and how to overcome them. We live in a world where people are spoon-fed what to think, but are seldom taught how to think. Nowhere is this more important than in the pursuit of truth. In the words of Jesus, “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” John 8:32.

Speaker: Dr. Juan Valdes has always had an curious mind and asked lots of questions growing up. Searching for answers has been his passion and a lifelong journey. He had his first debate in 10th grade Biology class. Juan believes people have good questions and we as Christians need to have good answers. He desires to live out the command in the Bible where we’re told to always be ready to give an answer and to do so with the right attitude (1 Peter 3:15).

Further, Juan feels called to equip young people for the battles they face every day in an increasingly hostile culture. He also desires to equip parents and pastors so that they’re able to engage the youth. Juan loves to see people emboldened when they realize that there’re excellent arguments in support of the Truth. Most importantly, he enjoys removing the obstacles that keep people from surrendering to Christ.
