Why Should Anyone Believe The Bible? – Dan Kreft @ Calvary Chapel Eastside
Jan 22 @ 10:00 am – 11:30 am

Why Should Anyone Believe The Bible?

Description: Why should anyone believe the Bible? If you think you’re about to hear about a bunch of evidences or arguments for the truth of Scripture, you’re in for quite a surprise….because it’s not about evidences, and it’s not about arguments. Basically, it’s not about you at all.


Speaker: Dan Kreft, the Seven-Foot Apologist, is a teacher, speaker, and author of the three-volume book, “Jesus” Is Not the Answer to Every Sunday School Question. He holds a degree in electrical engineering from Northwestern University, played professional basketball for three years, and is a recovering software engineer of over twenty-three years. In addition to his own ministry, Dan also serves on the board of directors for the Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County, and is an adjunct teacher for Creation Training Initiative. Dan lives in Bothell, WA with his wife Adair. They have four kids, a dog, some cats, and a flock of free-loading chickens. He is also quite fond of Oreo® cookies and Lucky Charms®.

Dan has been teaching practical theology and apologetics to pre-teens through adults since 2003. He has a reputation for provoking his students to thought with challenging questions and for rejecting shallow, “generic Sunday school answers.” His unconventional approach to Sunday school is captured in his three-volume book “Jesus” Is Not the Answer to Every Sunday School Question, which brings the reader into his class as he equips students to answer questions including “Why should anyone believe the Bible?,” “What is and when was the Beginning?,” “Did God use the big bang?,” “Why is the divinity of Jesus such a big deal?,” and demonstrates how to talk to Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and skeptics. Dan’s three books are available on amazon.com.
