The 10 Keys for Unlocking the Bible study intentionally avoids apologetics issues such as creation vs. evolution or the evidence for the Bible. The goal of the 10 Keys study is simply to present what the Bible says. The Bible is living and active and has power within itself to impact people.

But some participants in the 10 Keys for Unlocking the Bible study will have legitimate questions about these kinds of issues. It is important to provide additional resources that will address their intellectual questions and concerns. Here are some of the resources that you may want to consider.

Books:

The Case for Faith, Lee Strobel
In this sequel, Strobel tackles eight objections to Christianity that he needed answered before he could embrace Christ. Here are a few of the common objections he deals with:

• It’s Offensive to Claim Jesus is the Only Way to God
• A Loving God Would Never Torture People in Hell
• And more
