Abstract/Summary:
This project researches the effectiveness of teaching epistemology as it relates to apologetic evidences for Christian truth claims to increase reported confidence in knowing and defending the Christian faith as well as increase religious activities among Christian Millennials affiliated with Hope Presbyterian Church in Memphis, Tennessee through a weekend retreat. The teaching seeks to demonstrate the insufficiency of naturalism and postmodern relativism as approaches to knowledge, assert modest foundationalism as the proper orientation toward epistemology, and then demonstrate the reliability of Christian truth claims through apologetic evidences in the areas of God's existence, the historical reliability of the Bible, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the possibility of miracles, and religious experience.
