DISCOVER GOD.   “Is there really a God?”   “Where did I come from?”   “You sure about this ‘Jesus’?”   This session deals with answers to the old aged challenge renewed by Richard Dawkins the “God Delusion” a decade ago by focusing on Paul’s experience in Athens in Acts 17:16-34.   Using the letters CHRISTIANITY, here are the first three principles to face "Real Life" and Understanding the Basics of Faith in Jesus:   C – Challenges:   Face The Challenges.   Confront the arguments   (Awareness, v.16-18).   This is the world we live in – anti-Christian, post-Christian era.   H – Hammer:   Hammer The Evidences.     (Preparedness, v.19-21) R – Responses:   Harvest the Responses.
