I remember how different air travel was in the 60s and 70s . . . and how it now is. For those too young to know any different, watch this. Air travel is only one example of how the culture has deteriorated. In general today, men don’t treat women with…

Apologetics has a necessary ministry both outside the church towards unbelievers and inside the church towards believers. Apologetics has two functions: (1) persuade skeptics (1 Pet 3:15) and (2) strengthen the church (2 Cor 10:5; Titus 1:9). Both ministries are essential.
