Answers for Skeptics

Session 3 - Workshop

June 21, 2019 • Alex McFarland

More than 20% of people under age 30 claim to be agnostic - and the number is growing. In this workshop, we will examine the different types of skeptics and look at the characteristics common to each profile. This research was compiled through one on one interviews with dozens of professed atheists/agnostics. Additionally, the workshop will present apologetic responses t many of the most common arguments of skeptics.

As a Christian apologist, author, evangelist, religion and culture analyst, and advocate for biblical truth, Alex McFarland speaks worldwide. He has preached in over 2,000 churches throughout North America and numerous more internationally. He also speaks at Christian events, conferences, debates, and other venues to teach biblical truths and preach the gospel.

Alex is a frequent spokesperson on Fox News, and has been interviewed by other media outlets including Fox and Friends, the Alan Colmes Show, “The Strategy Room”, Billy Graham’s Decision radio broadcast, Focus On The Family radio, NPR’s All Things Considered, The New York Times, and more.

Alex was the third president of Southern Evangelical Seminary and College, located in Charlotte, NC, from 2001 until 2005 and under his leadership the school experienced unprecedented growth. Prior, Alex had served as Focus On The Family’s first Director of Teen Apologetics. He has served as the Director of Apologetics and Christian Worldview at North Greenville University (SC).

Alex’s greatest passion is growing the Body of Christ and instructing Christians on how to stand strong in the face of ever-diminishing morals, ethics, and values.
