What did past students take away from the course?

"I feel more equipped to go out and ask people questions [about what they believe in order to share the Gospel with them.] Before, I wouldn't have known where to start."

"Why our faith is reasonable."
"Practical application to every day [life]."
"A much clearer understanding of the Christian arguments."
"I can have an effective conversation with a non-believer … without arguing or knowing all the answers."
"[It gave me] tools and answers to people's questions."
"The apologetics [course] put on by Hanna was completely outstanding! It was engaging and incredibly insightful. The course was comprehensive, nicely well-rounded with both instruction and practical application. Each student came away with vital tools and the correct mindset to effectively and confidently defend their faith, and even present the truth to those around them in a loving way.
I would highly recommend it for every Christian young person!"
​- ​Sam, Leadership Academy Director for In the Gap

What is a "Minute Fisherman"?

During the Revolutionary War, a special group of soldiers were ready at a minute's notice to go out and fight whenever they were called. These men were called "Minute Men." These soldiers were 25 years old and younger and were chosen for their enthusiasm, reliability, and physical strength. Their preparation before being called was vital for the success of those they served.​
As Christians we are soldiers in the Lord's army, as well as "fishers of men."
​Are you equipped to be a "fisher of men" at a moment's notice?
