October 13 is approaching fast with only a couple more weeks to register for The Noble Man Tidewater Conference. With just a couple more workshop presenters to introduce you to, we hope you will join us in a few weeks to worship, learn, and be equipped for battle! This next workshop presenter is no stranger to The Noble Man Conference. Allen Crostic with Reasonable Faith is one of our returning presenters and you don’t want to miss his workshop. Allen’s favorite verse at the moment is 2 Corinthians 10:5 and it fits perfectly with the mission of his ministry. “We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,” (ESV) If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to engage spiritual conversations but weren’t sure where to start, Allen is the man you want to talk to. Allen has a passion for apologetics and will be teaching a workshop titled Tactics: Developing a Game Plan for Difficult Conversations. He believes this conversation is important to everyone, especially to men.
“If we are going to make a mark in this world for the kingdom of God, we need to know how to be effective at having spiritual conversations with others.”
This topic is personal to Allen because he also wrestled with questions about God when he was younger. (Read more about Allen’s story HERE!) Interestingly enough, Allen found himself being discipled after beginning to read C.S. Lewis in 1996. Today, Allen is on fire for the Lord and is ready to equip men to enter into difficult conversations. His favorite book to give to others is On Guard: Defending Your Faith with Reason and Precision by William Lane Craig. However, he’s currently reading The Unseen Realm by Dr. Michael Heiser.
“I’m learning that the spiritual realm is much more complex than I previously imagined.”
Allen says the hero in his own life is his dad.
“He has embodied Christ in many ways throughout my life.”
If you’re interested in learning how to engage in difficult conversations, you don’t want to miss Allen’s workshop at The Noble Man Tidewater Conference! If you want to learn more about Allen’s ministry with Reasonable Faith, the Richmond chapter meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday every month from 7:00-8:30pm, usually at Redemption Books in Stony Point Shopping Center off Huguenot Rd. They also facilitate Apologetics classes at churches upon request. Register for The Noble Man Tidewater Conference TODAY!
