Our Speaker
Mark Farnham is the Founder and Director of Apologetics for the Church. Mark has been teaching Apologetics in local churchs for almost twenty years. His study of Apologetics has opened doors to interact with all kinds of people. He is an engaging speaker who combines simple, clear explanations with gripping personal illustrations from fascinating encounters with nonbelievers of all kinds.
Mark served for seven years as a senior pastor in the very skeptical environment of New England. He understands the frustration of trying so many “Come and See” events with little apparent fruit. By training church members to confidently “Go and Tell,” apologetics strengthens the faith and witness of the entire church. His training seminars are aimed at ordinary church members who want to become prepared and confident to share their faith with anyone they meet.
Mark is the director of the Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics program at Lancaster Bible College and Capital Seminary in Lancaster, PA. Mark earned a PhD in Apologetics from Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia. He holds a Master of Theology degree in New Testament from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and a Master of Divinity degree from Calvary Baptist Seminary. He is the author of Every Believer Confident: Apologetics for the Ordinary Christian (Deep River, 2019), and coauthor of Talking About Ethics: A Conversational Approach to Moral Dilemmas (Kregel, 2021) and Talking About Worldviews: A Conversational Approach to Philosophical Questions (Kregel, forthcoming).
