SUMMARY:Confident Christianity - Perth
DESCRIPTION:Confident Christianity comes to Perth\n\nDo you find the thought of talking about Jesus to friends\, neighbours\, classmates or colleagues daunting? Do you sometimes find yourself thinking “what if I say something that makes God look bad?” Or wondering what happens if they raise a challenging question or objection to which you’re unable to respond. (“Aren’t Christians bigoted and homophobic?”; “Isn’t the Bible unreliable and full of errors?”; “Hasn’t science buried God?”; “Isn’t religion just a psychological crutch?” … and the list goes on). \nWell\, you’re not alone! In the fast-paced\, skeptical and secular culture in which we live\, most of us find evangelism a bit daunting. That’s why Solas is partnering with churches in the Perth area for a Confident Christianity conference at Perth North Church. We will be bringing you a great line-up of speakers including our own Andy Bannister. They’ll help you become confident and empowered to talk about Jesus more naturally\, engage in evangelism that persuades people\, and feel equipped to answer the questions of your friends. \nAs the popular evangelist J John once said: “Many times Christians are like arctic rivers. They have frozen mouths.” Come along to a Confident Christianity conference and de-thaw! \nThis event is sponsored by Tayside Christian Fellowship\, Perth Baptist Church and Perth North Church. \nSpeakers include:\nAndy Bannister (Solas)\nKristi Mair (Oak Hill)\nMichael Ots \n Tickets Available Here \n£15 Adults / £10 Concession – plus booking fee \nEvent Partners:\nChristians Against Poverty\nOpen Doors\nSASRA
