Answers in Genesis
“Answers in Genesis is an apologetics (i.e., Christianity-defending) ministry dedicated to enabling Christians to defend their faith and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ effectively. We focus particularly on providing answers to questions surrounding the book of Genesis, as it is a foundational book of Christianity and the most-attacked book of the Bible. We also desire to train others to develop a biblical worldview and seek to expose the bankruptcy of evolutionary ideas and their bedfellow: a “4.5 billion-year-old” earth (and an even older universe).”
Jews for Jesus
“A non-profit organization made up primarily of Jewish people, as well as other followers of Jesus who are committed allies of the Jewish people. Our staff come from diverse Jewish backgrounds—some were raised Orthodox Jewish, some nominally Jewish. We’re artists, parents, doctors, former IDF soldiers, and more. But we have one thing in common: we all believe Yeshua (Jesus) is the Messiah our prophets foretold.
Many Jewish people have never heard that following Jesus is a viable and thriving expression of Jewish life.”
SO BE IT! (YouTube Channel)
“Hi! We are Jeff and Elisha - two Israeli believers in Jesus with a passion for hearing and sharing stories. On our channel you will discover the stories of people on the streets of Israel and the stories of Jewish people who met Jesus in amazing ways. You will also learn more about the story of the Bible by seeing it come alive in its original context - the land of Israel!
Both of us never imagined that we would dedicate our lives to telling other people about Jesus, but once we learned that He is the Messiah and Savior of the world, there was nothing else to say except, "SO BE IT!"
SO BE IT! is a project of Jews for Jesus.”

Give Me an Answer
“The ‘Give Me An Answer’ ministry began as an outgrowth of the dialogues Cliffe Knechtle has had with students on various university campuses throughout the United States. Cliffe spoke on these campuses in front of the Student Union or Library at noon for five to ten minutes. At the close of his initial remarks, he’d open up the time for questions and answers, which usually turned into a two to four-hour dialogue with students. His crowd size ranged from 25 – 500 students at a time, and between classes, new students would join the discussion.
Our mission is to ignite a passion for truth, guide individuals to embrace their faith, and help them find purpose in a world hungry for answers. Driven by a deep commitment to spreading the message of Jesus, we actively engage skeptics, empower truth-seekers, and offer meaningful responses to questions, doubts, and challenges concerning faith, reason, and the meaning of life. Through the transformative power of media, we strive to make a lasting impact on lives and hearts, sharing the love, grace, and truth of Jesus with unwavering dedication.”
“Mining for God” (Apologetics Documentary with Lee Strobel, William Lane Craig, and Others)
“As Brandon McGuire asked questions, both online and on the street, it soon became apparent that people hold all manner of beliefs: Good people go to heaven; bad people end up in hell. All religions are basically the same. It’s about rules. It’s about controlling people. No religion can be the only way to God or spirituality. McGuire realized that this was an area of much confusion in America. So he set out to address it rationally.
He began asking a number of questions in order to dig into the ideologies of our time. What is Christianity? What are some of the ideas that have influenced the way people think about it? Is there any evidence for God? If so, how can we know anything about who this God is? Is there such a thing as objective truth, or is truth relative to cultures?
McGuire then turns an eye to the central event in the Christian narrative – the resurrection of Jesus Christ. After all, this claim – that Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead – makes Christianity testable: Is there evidence for the resurrection? And if so how credible is it?
He interviews a variety of people – people on the street, former atheists and former believers in other religions, along with some of the most seasoned Christian scholars making the case for Christianity today such as Lee Strobel, William Lane Craig, Gary Habermas, J Warner Wallace, Nabeel Qureshi, Paul Copan, and many more. The result of all of this inquiry is Mining for God, a one hour, expertly produced documentary that doesn’t preach at anyone. Rather, it raises good questions and respectfully offers food for thought.”
