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.
