In a
global consciousness that values pluralism and tolerance, our children
face a crisis of belief regarding the truths of Christianity. The best
time to prepare them to face the challenge of competing worldviews is
before (and during) college.

Crossing Currents
-
Provides
online,
interactive classes. Students are not left
wondering how to apply what they learn or how to assess information.
Ongoing opportunity to dialogue with instructors
continues even after completing a Crossing Currents class.
- Encourages
parents of teens to read along with the students.
Parents have access to curriculum, class discussions, and the
instructors for questions or clarification.
- Teaches
practical application along with a well-rounded, multi-method
approach to apologetics. This increases the chances of being able to
address new philosophies that become popular.
- Blends intellect and imagination for a more comprehensive approach
to learning truth. Instead of relying strictly on rational
arguments, students are encouraged to love the Lord with their
heart, soul, and strength as well as their minds. (Luke 10:27)
-
Focuses on
how
to think instead of
what
to
think.
- Fits well
with the
classical education model.

"The best way
to help teenagers learn how to defend their faith often is
through probing questions and interaction rather than
'preaching' or lectures....Without application, apologetics is
often simply a head game that makes little difference in their
lives so we must provide supervised opportunities for them to
apply what they have learned in real-world situations."
