Stand to Reason

Stand to Reason Confidence for every Christian. Clear thinking for every challenge. Courage and grace for every encounter. We teach not just what to think, but how to think.

Stand to Reason equips Christian ambassadors with knowledge, wisdom, and character. Stand to Reason teaches the value of using our minds to love God and share the Gospel. We focus on the basics, the fundamentals of theology and ethics, and the fundamental tools of thought. While Stand to Reason may not be unique in the information we give, we are distinctive in the way we use the information. Stan

d to Reason teaches careful reasoning and well thought-out answers so that Christians will be able to participate in public discussions (at home, at work, or at the university) and present the Christian worldview in the debate. We encourage Christians to develop coherent answers to questions that challenge Christianity so that their faith is deepened and thereby are emboldened to share the Gospel in a gracious and compelling manner.

You never know what surprises you’ll face once the bullets start flying. This is no excuse, though, for neglecting to set a clear course at the outset or failing to be ready for what you think you might encounter along the way.

How do we reconcile 1 Corinthians 13:5, which says that love doesn’t keep a record of wrongs, with Revelation 20, which says that God keeps a record of everything we have done and will judge us by it?

1 Corinthians 13 is about how Christians ought to act in relationship with each other. Paul is not describing the love of God, because God has different obligations.

God’s goodness underlays both his love and justice. This is why we’re to leave room for the vengeance and justice of God.

By opening the books, God demonstrates that all are guilty and will be judged according to their works. This isn’t an example of holding a grudge, but of executing justice.

Justice requires knowing exactly what someone has done. You can’t punish fairly without a record. God has a role we don’t have. He’s the Judge. His record-keeping serves justice. It isn’t holding a grudge.

Speaking at , Tripp Almon explains that the claim “Jesus is the only way” is not a subjective preference Christians seek to force on others. It is an objective claim about reality that is either true or false.

Tomorrow is the FINAL day of our Be One of the 100 campaign.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been reminded of something simple but profound:

God uses faithful people to reach others with truth.

That’s how lives are changed. That’s how Christians are equipped to engage the people and the culture around them with wisdom, confidence, and grace.

And that’s why Stand to Reason’s work continues year after year.

We hear SO MANY stories at each of our conferences—

Students who overcome struggles with self-harm after talking to Jon Noyes.

Women who choose life after hearing Megan Almon's session on abortion.

Siblings who gain clarity on how to respond to an LGBT brother or sister after listening to Alan Shlemon's breakout.

Agnostics who choose to place their faith in Jesus after considering Jason Jimenez’s message on why we need a firm anchor.

There's a reason why we see so many return to Reality year after year.

Young people (and adults) are facing real doubts and difficulties, and they’re finding answers and hope—in one-on-one discussions with our speakers, in interactive opportunities like our Ask an Apologist booth, and more.
