Today’s young people don’t have as much hostility or skepticism toward Christianity as their counterparts a generation ago did. They’re not opposed to spirituality or the supernatural. They may not need much convincing that God exists and that the stories about Jesus are true.

What they need is a reason to care.

Many nonbelievers today aren’t antagonistic toward the Christian story as much as they are apathetic. The Christian story isn’t threatening to them; it just doesn’t seem relevant. They’re looking to other stories for meaning, purpose, and identity. What they don’t know is that these other cultural narratives can’t offer true fulfillment and meaning apart from the Christian story. Many of today’s dominant scripts of meaning—freedom, justice, science—flow from Christianity’s world-altering story.

Crucial to evangelism and apologetics today is the ability to connect these dots for people—showing the insufficiencies of prevailing secular stories but also their organic connection to the truest story: the gospel of Jesus Christ. TGC just released an ambitious new resource, Making Sense of Us, that vividly makes these connections.

Perhaps the most ambitious multimedia resource TGC has ever produced, Making Sense of Us is a 7-week video and book curriculum produced by The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics. Order the curriculum or download a free sample, and consider gathering a group from your church or school to work through the material together. What you learn in Making Sense of Us will equip you to help your nonbelieving neighbor make sense of God.
