Questions You Don’t Want to Get Asked (And How to Answer Them)
6:00 p.m.
Fellowship Hall East
In today’s culture, we can be confronted by questions or statements that are challenging to answer. They may come from family, friends, co-workers, or strangers. While we may instinctively know the answers, we usually avoid dealing with these themes because we often have trouble articulating a well-thought-out response, or we do not want to get into a long debate. In this class, Dr. Jim Spikes will look at some of these questions and how we could respond.
