απολογία (apologia) … and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you … (1 Peter 3:15)
Our goal is to look at science, skepticism, politics, Christianity, and the Bible from perspectives you may not have considered before. We study complete books of the Bible as well as various topics concerning Christians — but from a scientific and current events viewpoint. So be open minded as you look at ideas from a different Frame of Reference.

What we Believe
We believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God, by which all things are given to us pertaining to life and Godliness (2 Timothy 3:16)
We believe in one God, our Father, the creator of all that exists both visible and invisible. We believe that God has revealed Himself to us in three persons, the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit (1 Timothy 3:16)
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:8-10 KJV)
We believe the gospel to be that Jesus Christ, the second person of the Godhead, became flesh, was born of a virgin, and lived as a man among men. We believe Jesus suffered and died for our sins, and was physically and literally resurrected from the dead, ascended back into Heaven, and is now seated at the right hand of the Father (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
We believe that all men are helplessly lost, separated from God, and are sinners by nature. We believe that the only way to reconciliation with God is personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and that all who repent and believe on the Lord Jesus shall be saved. Salvation is therefore the free gift of eternal life, bought and paid for by the death and blood of Jesus on the cross (John 5:24, Ephesians 2:8)
