Christian Teaching Ministry - Every Reason to Believe

What People Are Saying

“Every believer is called to bear witness for Jesus (Acts 1:8) and to defend the faith (1 Peter 3:15). Every Reason to Believe is a great resource for those just getting started and for those seasoned in the work. I recommend this website and its resources to you.”

Robin Jumper, Ph.D.

Distinguished Professor of Evangelism and Spiritual Formation at Baptist University of Florida

“Every Christian needs to know what they believe, why they believe it, and how to articulate the timeless truths of the Christian faith. Every Reason to Believe is a helpful resource for Christians seeking to do all three.”

Rev. Joe Collis, M.Div.

Manager of @Back2theWord & Church Staff Member at First Baptist Kettering

“This site is a timely gift to the church, and it’s a nursery for serious, thoughtful Christians. Christianity can be a complex religion, and Every Reason to Believe makes things easier to start a pilgrimage on the holy, apostolic and catholic faith, once delivered to the saints. The Church will be greatly benefited through its articles, books and publications.”

“Apologetics is very important, and Every Reason to Believe does a great job answering some of those tough questions in a biblical way. It also offers very well-written articles, and downloadable and printable resources. I highly recommend checking it out!”

Joshua Walsh

“God calls us to ‘be ready always’ to give a reasoned defense for the hope that we have in Christ (1 Pet. 3:15). Every Reason to Believe will better equip you to obey that calling.”

Editor-in-Chief of Text and Translation and Vice-Chairman of The Bahnsen Institute (Publishers of Apologetics — The Truth, The Whole Truth, And Nothing But The Truth)
