FAQ

How long has ARC been in existence?

Since January 1999.

What exactly does ARC do?

1) Publish – Our writing ministry is extension including Areopagus Journal, Worldviews Newsletter, articles for journals, books, and blogs. This is the key format for equipping the saints in apologetics.

2) Speak – We travel and speak on apologetics topics at churches and otherwise as invited. Several of our staff have been interviewed for radio and television media as well.

3) Coach and Council – We meet with believers and unbelievers alike who have serious questions about faith in Jesus Christ and help them see the rational of viewing life through the biblical worldview.

Will you help me witness to an unbeliever?

Yes. We will coach you through the process. Just call our office. We also will speak with the person, but we do prefer training Christians in the process so that you can be a long-term effective witness for Christ.

Shouldn’t we be doing evangelism instead of apologetics?

No. There is a false dichotomy between these two disciplines and both are necessary. Apologetics has rightly been called pre-evangelism. Apologetics seeks to remove barriers to belief so that the gospel can be presented in an intellectually appropriate context. Both of these disciplines are two sides to the same coin.

Do I have to come from a certain theological persuasion to benefit from ARC’s ministry?

We do have a statement of faith that is conservative and evangelical. Our staff is comprised of Presbyterians and Baptists. We work quite frequently with charismatic and Methodist churches. There are some boundaries dictated by our statement of faith, but we have something to offer most everyone.
