Anybody know of any books that have good ways to teach apologetics to Jr. High/High School level students? The best option would be full of lesson plans, work sheets, etc., but anything that presents a starting point for analyzing worldviews, common objections to Christianity, etc. would be helpful. I already have Geisler and Turek's "I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist." It was written for the layman in mind so wouldn't be too tough to turn into lessons, but why re-invent the wheel...

Hi :hi: I'm writing a paper relating to the above points to title for school, and the sources I've found are mostly secular ones and not particularly helpful. I was wondering if anyone (particularly from a reformed or lutheran persuasion) had any recommendations/articles/information from a christian or at least not-attacking-christians perspective? Everything seems to have an agenda saying how evil the reformers were for doing this, and that's really not useful - I just want something...

As part of the entrance requirements for my PhD program, I had to pass language exams in three languages- two modern and one ancient. I was in good shape on two of the three, having minored in Spanish in college, and studied heavily in ancient Greek in seminary, but the third language I hadn't even begun yet. I've since passed exams in Spanish and in Greek, and for my third language, I've chosen German since a lot of theological literature is written in German. Anyway, it's been a royal...

It's a quiet lazy day in the library when she comes in. First she gives a furtive look in the door, then edges her way in as if she were trying not to fall off of a cliff. She glances around nervously as she makes her way to the desk. She's wearing a disguise, possibly the worst ever. An oversized Fedora and sunglasses cover much of her head and face with the obviously fake blonde wig hiding the rest. A hem of blue peeks out from under her trench coat just above the matching knee high boots....
