The Apologia Conference

In a world filled with competing worldviews and hard questions about faith, believers are called not only to know what they believe, but why they believe it. Our 2026 Apologetics Conference is designed to equip Christians of all ages to confidently and graciously defend the truth of the gospel.
Over the course of two days, our speakers will address topics such as the resurrection of Jesus, the problem of evil and suffering, faith and reason, engaging atheistic claims, sharing Christ with Muslims, and helping both adults and children understand and articulate the Christian faith. Sessions will be biblical and practical—offering tools you can use in real conversations with skeptics, seekers, friends, and family.
Whether you are new to apologetics or looking to deepen your understanding, this conference will strengthen your confidence in Scripture and your ability to give a reason for the hope you have.
