This is a five part video lecture series featuring the Rev. Dr. Alan D. Strange teaching on Presuppositional Apologetics. This conference was sponsored by Resurrection Presbyterian Church in Oshkosh, WI. The conference took place on October 20th-21st, 2018.
In the first session Dr. Strange evaluate the unbeliever’s claim to be neutral regarding their interpretation of reality and demonstrate that this is a myth since no worldview is neutral. The second session looks at how a biblical approach to unbelief requires an exploration of the presuppositions that lie underneath unbelievers’ interpretation of reality. Session three looks at the resurrection of Jesus Christ and its apologetics’ value while session four looks at the problem of evil and how in order to attempt to refute Christianity with it, unbelievers still have to rest on Christian worldview. Finally session five is on the Gospel.
Thanks to Jeff Downs for letting me know about this series! For even more free lectures on Presuppositional Apologetics check out our Ultimate Collection of Free Presuppositional Apologetics Lectures.

Thanks for posting these! I enjoyed the first one, the Myth of Neutrality, as I worked for work this morning.
Wow thanks for listening to these! I’m glad this is a quality free resource; we live in a wonderful age where the internet gives us so many free Christian resource! I wish more Christians took advantage of that to be trained and to be equipped. Hope you are having a good day at work today Tom
Thanks, Jimmy! Had a good half-day of work and then took my wife to the orthopedist which went well. Hope you had a blessed day!
Are you sure there really is no religious neutrality?
Hey Kevin here’s an outline I have on the subject of why religious neutrality is not possible: https://veritasdomain.wordpress.com/2013/07/25/a-brief-outline-against-religious-neutrality-2/
Also its worth listening to the first message by Alan Strange a second time and a slower pace to help grasp it. This is important as it will shape one’s apologetics’ methodology.
That was a helpful outline. I learn more from reading than listening. This is new to me and only found your blog recently from your Facebook page

Thank you for reblogging this brother, I hope the Lord will use this to help those want to grow in defending their faith more bibilcally and powerfully in refuting those in error in fulfilling 1 Peter 3:15 and 2 Corinthians 10:5, amen?
Amen yes I agree I mean is not Genesis 1:1 a presuppositional apologetic?
I think Genesis 1:1 doe shape our apologetics if that’s what you are saying about beginning with God and importance of thinking biblically and being God-centered even with our defense of the faith, since God is creator of everything. Hey I know our converations is going fast (in a good way) but I notice you mentioned earlier you like Chinese food, that’s so cool! I do too! Any particular Chinese food?
I agree we talked about Presuppositional appoldetics before but I don’t remember what I said. Sweet and sour chicken is good and I like Mongolian beef with steamed white rice. That’s awesome you like Chinese food too.
I like Mongolian beef. Have you ever had Kung Pao Chicken? Also for your blog have you figured out how to check out the stats for your blog yet such as number of views, etc since we talked about it two nights ago?
Cool I think I have had Kung Pao Chicken no sure though. I doo look at traffic in stats.
This is wonderful, thank you so much for sharing it!!!
You’re welcome! I hope it’s helpful for you! I know I haven’t posted homeschool lessons for months but I will begin teaching outline series again next Wednesday, thought you might appreciate me telling you that!
I most certainly do, thank you brother! That’s very exciting! I look forward to your next series. 🙂

Like you I also prefer to read an article than to listen to a video if I have a choice. I can read a transcript faster than listening to any video, except for Ben Shapiro’s.
Your question to SlimJim amused me. Allow me to paraphrase. Are you —sure– (neutral) about their being no neutrality?
I concede the point and your last question drove it home. That was also mentioned as the last point in slimJim’s outline
Grateful for these
