Conversations Matter: Tactics for Defending the Truth in the Public Square

Featuring Dr. Ted Fenske

The university campus is not neutral territory. If you are a Christian student today, you know the pressure. Whether it is a professor challenging the historical reliability of the Bible, a classmate debating gender and human rights, or the constant secular assumption that Christianity is oppressive—the attacks are daily.

Most Christians respond in one of two ways: they either stay quiet to survive or they get into debates that go nowhere. There is a better way. Join Reformer Students for an intensive, high-impact workshop with Dr. Ted Fenske. This is not just a theoretical theology lecture; it is a tactical briefing. Dr. Fenske will equip you with a proven, conversational approach (drawing on Greg Koukl’s Tactics) to navigate aggressive questions, dismantle secular arguments respectfully, and confidently defend the Christian worldview.

What You Will Learn:

• Worldview 101: Understanding the foundational beliefs driving today's secular culture.

• The Tactical Approach: How to safely guide conversations, reverse the burden of proof, and put a "pebble in the shoe" of those who oppose the Christian worldview.

• Frontline Case Studies: Step-by-step examples of how to tactically answer the toughest cultural slogans, including:

  • "Why does God allow evil?"

  • "Abortion is healthcare."

  • "Love is love" / "Opposing same-sex marriage is like opposing interracial marriage."

  • "You must respect preferred pronouns."

  • "MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying) provides dignity."

Who is this for? University and college students, high school seniors, and young adults who are tired of playing defense and want to be equipped to stand publicly for the Truth.
