We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

Our kids are a lot smarter than most churches think. And we should teach them the deep answers to tough questions. Set them up to know what they believe and why. Demand more from your youth group than just games and pizza. If you want your kid to have a foundation that cannot be shaken by their atheists college professors than give them the apologetics they crave now. Trust me, they can handle it.

Listen to full episodeTheodore Roosevelt said, "The worst thing you can do is nothing," and I completely agree. Whether it's working out, having a daily devotion, or leading your family spiritually, it's better to do SOMETHING than to sit on the sidelines doing nothing because you don't have time to create a five-star production. We don't have to be perfect in order to lead workouts and devotions at Men's Alliance. We just have to be willing to get off the sideline. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
