Rethinking Apologetics for the Next Generation

Dr. Shawn Nelson has created the world’s first apologetics assessment. After collecting data on over 1,000 conversions, he shares groundbreaking research on why people make a decision for Christianity and what continues to keep them convinced. Anyone who is interested in modern-day evangelism and church growth needs to be aware of these important results. Many people have also found the assessment to be very helpful in understanding their own spiritual journey.
