Here is a radio interview Vocab and I did on the "Debate Aftermath". We reviewed a few points of the debate we had with some local atheists. Please pray for and support this ministry!
Here is a link to the audio from the public debate with Vocab Malone and I VS. Shawn Esplin and Omar David Call on "Which makes more sense: Christianity or Atheism?"
Here is a link to my favorite episode I did with Vocab, Vermon and Pastor Bob. Its on the Old Testament prophecies of Jesus. Enjoy! Go and tell somebody about Him!
I know. I know. "Jeff, you are an awful blogger"! Please forgive me for not posting regularly lately. With two full-time ministries, finishing school, studying Hebrew and a family with a wonderful wife and four great kids I rarely have a spare moment-- and I love every minute of it!
The debate went great and we should have audio to post really soon as well as a debate aftermath radio show we recorded for "Backpack Radio" on KPXQ. I'll put it up as soon as I can. I hope it blesses you!
Please pray for us! Tonight we are going to proclaim the Biblical Gospel to thousands of Mormons in Mesa, Arizona!
I'll be recording for the radio and podcast show "Out of Mormonism" today. No, I was not a Mormon but I sure do love them and want to see them leave it and come to know Christ :]
I'll try and update everyone to let them know how to hear it when I get word.
The debate is completely full. We booked every possible seat (and then some). But, don't worry! Thank God for all this really cool technology. We are going to broadcast the event live on the internet. You guys can thank my trusty side-kick and best friend Pastor Luke. He is working hard on making sure everyone gets a seat and is able to watch the debate-- whether you are present at the debate or not.
Please pray for us. Please continue to support our ministry financially if you feel led. Here is the link to watch the event live:
Here is a quick blurb and part of the flier for our upcoming debate! If you would like tickets (they are free) you must reserve them by contacting Pastor Luke @ luke@defendthefaith.org
Sorry it has been so long everyone! We've been so busy with ministry that I haven't been able to be very consistent with our posts. Great stuff coming up! I'll be speaking to the GCU (Grand Canyon University) students on March 7th. And we are scheduled to have our debate with our atheist friends on April 1st, 2011 and it will be held at APOLOGIA church in Tempe. We will post more details soon.
God has been so good to us. He has blessed us with the honor of seeing Him save His people from their sins and watching them grow in Him! We'll post new stuff as soon as possible. Keep checking back guys! In the meantime, here is a local pastor's (Duncan Robinson) blog on the last camp I was given the grace to preach at.
Wow! Things are going fantastic here in Chicago. Um, I mean ministry-wise-- not the weather! Lot's of teens turned to Christ over the weekend at the winter camp I spoke at for Wheaton Bible church. But, the weather is nuts! There were up to 70mph winds and it dumped like 3-inches of snow an hour! It was an awesome sight to see.
Please continue to pray for our ministry. God has blown my mind with all of the lives He is changing. I'm humbled. I'm grateful.

PS--- They recorded the sessions from this weekend. I'll see if I can get them and maybe you can pass them on to the youth in your church?

We have a ton of great stuff coming! Most of this is ministry you can actually join with us in. Here are a few things-- Check it out:
1. We are almost finished with plans for an upcoming debate where Vocab Malone and I will debate two-local Atheists. We are going to let you know the venue and time and date soon. So far the topic will be "Christianity or Atheism: Which makes more sense?"
How can you help? We need people to join with us financially and prayerfully. We are expecting a great turnout for this event and believe that it will be very helpful. We are hoping to have a professional recording done and DVD's later. This event will be very time consuming and will cost a lot. Please consider starting prayers and fasting on Vocab and my behalf. Also, we need brothers and sisters to join with us IMMEDIATELY to help us with APOLOGIA'S ministry costs to get us through and to the event.
2. We are finalizing the production of all of our sermons (preached at APOLOGIA CHURCH) over the last year (March 1st is our 1-year anniversary). The process is very time consuming and it has taken a while to determine where to put them up. We are basically settled on a site (sermonaudio.com) that will allow easy access through computer and hand-held devices.
How can you help? Please consider donating to APOLOGIA for the cost of setting up with the site and once we are live please share the links with your friends and families!
3. I'll be speaking over the next two-months in 3-different states. I am a camp speaker for Wheaton Bible Church, a network of Arizona Churches and I'll also be a speaker for Grand Canyon University.
How can you help? Pray for safe travel and fruitful ministry. Also, we are in need of the people of God to join with us with financial gifts of any kind to help us make it through these next 2-months.
Apologia Christian Ministries is a very small ministry. We are dependent upon brothers and sisters in Christ worldwide to pray for us and support the work of ministry. If you have been blessed by what the Lord is doing through our ministry we would be grateful if you joined with us prayerfully and financially. Many of you ask us for specifics so that you can be praying for us. We are asking God for a ministry inflow of $10,000 to get us through the next few months and to help us with the upcoming costs for ministry.
Thank you so much for your gracious love and support! Please join this ministry as we spread the Gospel and watch God grow His Kingdom! You can bless this ministry with your financial gifts immediately by clicking on the paypal tab at the top of the page.
Here is a video of the baptisms from this weekend. Enjoy!
