    This was exactly what I needed. Hard fast things I need to do to explain, defend, evangelize my faith. I’m just told to do it without any help on a plan. Now I have my steps written down and know where to go with it. I’ll come up with an opening statement, practice beforehand, study, have data, facts. I will ask questions and present evidence. I will have a closing argument with confidence & have enthusiasm. Thank you Jesus for J.Warner Wallace.
