TBD Presents TrueU – Saturday, March 13th, 10am-3pm
TrueU is a DVD-based apologetics curriculum geared towards High School and College students. It is designed primarily to help students solidify their Christian faith with foundational apologetics training. This series will equip young people to stand strong in the university environment, and also serve as a precursor to the in-depth study presented in The Truth Project of how to live out a Christian worldview in everyday life.

This first installment of TrueU contains ten 25-minute videos focused on answering the question, “Does God Exist?” We will watch and discuss the first five of these videos on March 13th as a kind of intensive seminar, and the last five in the same format soon after. Lunch will be provided and there is no cost to attend. Deadline to sign up is March 11th. Contact Pastor Andy via email at andy@hickorycreekchurch.org or by phone at 815-469-9496 with any questions.
