Who is William Lane Craig? Why Should I be Excited?

How can I explain to you how awesome William Lane Craig is? He has been faithfully defending the faith for over 30 years! He uses awesome logical arguments winning debate after debate against the brightest Atheist scholars.

If you wanted to gather a team of the best defenders of the faith, William Lane Craig would be near the number one pick year after year. He is still debating the most popular Atheists of our day, and he is still presenting Christianity as a much more reasonable choice than anything else out there.

He first came to believe in Jesus and became a Christian when he was 16 as a junior in High School! Since then, he has dedicated his life to the study and defense of the faith. He has not one, but two PhD’s! One doctorate of Philosophy (Study of Knowledge), and another Doctorate of Theology (Study of God).

Faith based on Reason and Fact

Should we call him Dr. Dr. Craig? One Dr. for each Ph.D? I don’t think he cares about that, but he is very passionate about training up others and using his knowledge to let people know that Christianity is true and reasonable! It’s not about blind faith, and it’s not about feelings. It’s a faith that is built on unshakable facts, and he is coming to InterHigh to give a presentation on: Evidence for the Resurrection.

In short, William Lane Craig is the man! He’s out there using his gifts and his mind to defend the faith to show the world that Christianity is reasonable. So make sure you don’t miss out on your chance to hear from this amazing speaker on April 17th, 2010!
