Foundational Faith Unchangeable Truth for an Ever-changing World

In this third millennium, the clarion call of the gospel and the clear teaching of the foundational faith are encountering clashing challenges posed by a skeptical and tolerant culture. Even within the evangelical church, many have lost hold of the essential doctrines that define a uniquely Christian faith. These bedrock elements of the historic faith are the true believer's "base camp"; they connect us to the community of faith that stretches back over the millennia to the apostles themselves. To abandon these truths is to abandon the faith. With a desire to engage both head and heart, members of the Bible, theology, and pastoral studies departments of the Moody Bible Institute undergraduate school come together to present this lively, intelligent discussion of the foundational doctrines of Christianity.
