Thanks for joining us of cold case Christianity. I'm Jay Warner Wallace.

We've been talking over the last several weeks about how to apply a template of attributes or of principles or disciplines that first responders use so that we can be in the world yet not of the world.

This is something that's important to all of us as Christians as well, right?

So could we transfer some of those ideas and we've been taking this material from forensic faith, which is also, I'm not sure if you're aware of this, a curriculum that you can get to use with your small group, or it's just the book you can read for yourself.

So the idea here is how do we take these four things that

first responders do, which is accepting duty and getting involved in training, learning how to investigate

claims, and now we're going to talk about how to communicate those claims to others.

Let's face it in the end, most of us as Christians understand that we have been called

to communicate the gospel to others, to make the claim to others. Now of course this is why I say

and if you don't know what your duty is, if you haven't embraced your duty as

somebody who should know enough about theological principles, about the

history of Christianity,

about the apologetics enough to be able to make the case for why this is true,

in case somebody says, well, I disagree with you.

If you haven't accepted that duty

and you haven't trained and learned how to investigate these claims,

then it's going to be much more difficult for you to communicate these claims to others.
