Our Values
Gospel
We seek to center our apologetics on articulating and defending the gospel. There are topics within Christendom that are important, but are not of first importance. Our focus at EX is to answer objections that are directly an affront to biblical Christianity.
Scholarship
Though we desire to make apologetics accessible, we want to be thorough in our research and accurate in our presentation. We want to foster a culture of intellectual honesty— a passion to chase the truth no matter where it leads.
Scripture
We believe that defending the faith should begin with the scriptures themselves. A careful exposition of Christian doctrine is foundational to articulating the faith, and ensures that believers are representing the faith accurately and without compromise.
Healthy Conversation
We seek to have conversations that reflect our belief in the Imago Dei. Every person is created in the image of God, and regardless of their beliefs, they deserve dignity and respect. This respect is seen not just in our demeanor and kindness, but in how we engage with their arguments and objections
Church
The context of our work is in and through the local church. We believe that every believer should be involved in apologetics and we desire to make it a normal part of the discipleship process.
