    ONLINE BENEFITS

    I’m only on my third BBS class, but I have already used what I’ve learned in a multitude of ways. The apologetics classwork and forum discussions help me practically apply what I’m learning in a kids inner-city ministry, my church, and in evangelistic conversations with people of all ages.
