00:10

Announcement. I can't believe 2020 is over this this this year has

00:16

Huh, it's felt like forever. I mean obviously for a lot of people as well. I'm sure You know

00:23

This year has been super super weird for a lot of people and I hope people are Holding up. Okay, and had an okay year and was able to stay healthy but now is the time of the year that that that finish line is in view and this is where people start making their

00:40

You know their promises to get in shape, right? I'm one of those people

00:47

Right when New Year's hits it's kind of that mindset. I need to exercise. I need to lose weight

00:52

I'm not a heavyset guy, but I can get a little tummy every now and then so This time of year.

00:59

I kind of promised myself. I need to write it to go running and do it more consistently So this is definitely the time of year where people are thinking of healthy choices which probably lasts

01:12

About a month if you are a little more consistent probably You know two months or so and then all of a sudden we just revert back to our old ways

01:24

And you know, we pick up that extra cookie. We stop exercising. So I've actually and I don't people know this but I've actually began to run

01:34

For three months and I felt amazing and then I stopped for a couple of weeks. And so I want to hopefully before I revert back to my

01:43

The place where I started. Hopefully I could pick up In a better position and kind of continue on pick up the habit.

01:49

I'm in New York. It's cold. It's cold So, I don't know I make excuses for that. But anyway The new year is a perfect time to set goals and to figure out what you want to do

02:00

Different than the the previous year and so with that I wanted to to offer a suggestion

02:06

All right now I threw this out a little a couple of months ago and there was a Great interest in what

02:14

08:24

Let's say RSVP. All right, so if you were to click down So the first course that I'm gonna be offering is an introduction to biblical apologetics.

08:33

Okay now real quick I know a lot of people are either turned on or turned off by the terminology of introduction if you're just Starting in apologetics the word introduction can be very comforting

08:46

Okay, and if you are a seasoned apologist the word introduction can sound well, it can sound boring but Um, don't be fooled the introduction to biblical apologetics.

08:57

It is going to be practical. It is going to be Informative, but we will be getting into some of some deep issues.

09:04

We'll be speaking about metaphysics epistemology issues in philosophy things like that and of course,

09:10

I'm gonna do my best as an instructor to Really take those contact those concepts and bring them down to a level that you can understand and then apply or contextualize

09:21

Giving your own situation how you can use this information in your own

09:26

Apologetic encounters. Okay, so that's the the first course here. It's gonna be a five -week course Okay, and it will provide an overview and summary of the presuppositional apologetic methodology and how it is to be practically

09:39

Applied. Okay, and these courses are this course will begin on January 25th 2021 it's so weird 2021 when

09:48

I think of 2021 just the number eggs and we're all the flying cars. I can't believe it's already 2021 but yeah, so so January 25th is when the course will actually start and here are the costs if folks want to sign up there and you really want to pay attention to this because There are two packages that someone could

10:09

Could sign up for okay, and there and there's a difference between them So you want to make sure you read this or you listen to this carefully?

10:16

Okay, so we have a basic course the basic kind of package deal, which is going to be priced at $74 .99.

10:23

Okay, and what this is going to include is the five lectures for the five weeks the PowerPoint Notes that I will be using and outlines so you'll get the notes the five -week lectures

10:35

That's going to be the basic the pay the basic package. Okay, and you can work on your at your own pace there

10:42

Okay with regards to the premium course This is going to be priced at $99 .99 and it includes everything of the basic package with one extra added feature

10:51

And this is a weekly zoom meeting with myself Okay So those who are who sign up for the premium package will be able to meet with me once a week to unpack and go deeper

11:03

Into the concepts that are taught throughout the lectures this is going to be the Opportunity where you guys get to shower me with all of your questions and comments and and perhaps we could even do some roleplay

11:13

So that we can practice how to use some of the things you're learning in real life situation, so the premium course

11:21

Definitely priced more than the basic course, but you get that extra added kind of personal interaction there, which

11:26

I think Will create for a good experience for those who want to go a little deeper. I just real quick by Let me just remove this real quick.

11:35

Here we go For the premium package those who want to have that personal interaction weekly

11:42

There are only 20 slots. Okay, so the so the goal is going to be Is going to be

11:49

I don't want so many people signing up for premium. Well, I do I mean that would be helpful

11:55

But if there are too many who sign up for the premium package Then the zoom situation is just gonna be too unmet.

12:02

It's not I'm not gonna be able to manage it manage it Okay, so those who are Wanting to go a little deeper

12:08

I think 20 on a zoom screen would be good so that I can interact with you guys without Allowing you guys to without letting anyone get lost in the mix, you know

12:17

If we have a whole bunch of people, you know You're gonna have people hiding in the second or third screen won't be able to really interact and so I don't want that To happen.

12:24

Okay. So with that said if there are any questions about any of the the course information what it's gonna be like the details

12:31

You can ask them in your comments and I'll take a few moments to to go through the comments

12:36

All right so if you want to take a moment if you have any questions and you're kind of perusing around The website there and you find something interesting you could ask your question and I'll take them in just a few moments

12:47

Okay. Now here's the thing okay, you can see me as a person who's really really concerned with Priorities, okay, this is important All right

13:01

I kind of joked around before that during the you know, right before New Year's we make resolutions to to stay in shape okay, and I don't want to be a cliche, but Being in spiritual shape is vitally important And if not, it's more important than being, you know, physically fit, you know running to the gym

13:20

And so if you are wondering, you know, what should I do different this year? And what should

13:25

I kind of you know, if I if you do make New Year's resolutions and you're asking yourself Well, what should I do different this year really consider?

13:32

Signing up for a class. Okay, and You know You'll learn how to defend the

13:38

Christian faith and how to apply that and hopefully it will be able to equip you to be effective

13:43

In the particular context that God has placed you and I think that is a noble task And hey, if you're not interested in a precept you

13:49

I mean sign up for something else I mean learn something be intentional about learning be passionate about the truth of the gospel and Train yourself or allow yourself to be trained by others to effectively proclaim the truth of Jesus Christ and be able to defend it

14:05

Okay, so however you do that whether it's signing up with frees up you or some other program I do highly recommend that in this upcoming

14:12

New Year One of your goals is to exercise the muscle of your mind Okay, and so I want to want to encourage you there

14:21

I'm very Passionate about this stuff as you guys know if you follow the channel if if Christianity is true, that's awesome

14:31

I mean we believe that the Bible is true The Bible is the Word of God the world that we exist has been created by God He's expressed his love for us in the person of Jesus Christ.

14:41

He's given us a revelation. That means this life is interesting It's not just we are born we live and we die there's so much more to experience in a world in which we are created by We created in the image of God and so I'm so excited about the truth of the

14:58

Bible That when I teach this stuff, I want others to get excited I don't think that the learning process should be a boring kind of you're listening to someone just talk and whatever

15:08

I hope that the crazy excitement that I that I have will kind of spill over into your life if Hopefully that that's something that that will happen whether it's you just following the

15:21

YouTube channel or if you sign up for the class I want you guys to get excited about learning and exploring the

15:27

Christian faith and finding ways to To defend it effectively and biblically. Okay, so I want to encourage you guys there

15:34

So again revealed apologetics comm is live right now You can go and sign up for precept you the first 20 people to sign up for the premium then that's closed and then the basic is open to as many people who are interested who just want to go at their own pace and Listen to the lectures and things like that.

15:50

Okay, so With that said let me look in the comments here and I'm happy that people seem happy To find out that this is actually happening.

16:01

Hey, listen, I've never had a website before I've never done online courses before but I am a teacher by trade.

16:09

I've taught for over 10 years I've taught apologetics a theology. I grew up in church

16:14

As you guys know, I've engaged in debates and discussions and things like that And I think as an instructor

16:21

I have a lot to offer you And of course if you have other means by getting this information great

16:27

But what I have what God has gifted me with I want to be sure that I'm using the gift things that God has given me and so I do take this very

16:35

Seriously, and I'm very passionate about it. So You know, I just want to let you know that if you do sign up for the course, you'll be getting quality

16:44

Instruction. I love to teach. I love to see people learn I won't be able to see that with with the people who just sign up for the to get the lectures

16:53

But those who are gonna be meeting with me through the Zuma I just love to see people's faces when something clicks.

17:00

All right, that's something that I take great joy in so I'm looking forward to Being able to instruct whoever signs up and and and joins in in the classes.

17:09

So, all right Well, let me let me go up to the top here.

17:15

Okay. I have a student of mine. Hello Glastine, how are you doing? Let's see here.

17:21

I have a couple of questions here Catherine from Canada Okay, very good Canada or the territory

17:29

Yukon territory, I don't know. Okay, not sure We have a couple of whoo -hoos, which is awesome

17:35

Good. Let's see. We had a couple of questions here Yeah, and by the way, we will be making tweaks to the website

17:45

So if anyone goes to the website notices something off, you know, I do take criticism very well

17:51

Okay, so you can always email me at reveals apologetics at gmail .com And we'll make sure to update as we go along All right.

18:00

Let's see here Where are the flying cars right? Where are the flying cars?

18:06

My goodness? I remember complete side issue I remember being in second grade. I took a test and I Handed my test and I was

18:14

I mean that like daydream out the windows 1992 or something like that. I remember in the early 90s and I'm on there my goodness in just in just a few years 2000 the future and like you have this conception of what the future is gonna be like and again, where are the flying cars?

18:30

it was still Actually, there is a flying car out there, but it's not as cool as as As it looks in the movies, but alright.

18:37

Anyway, let's go here flying cars boo -boo -boo -boo Okay, so here's a here's a question.

18:43

So how many students will you be able to will be able to be in a class? Well again if you have the basic package

18:49

Okay, you will be sent the audio lectures and then work at your own pace So that can be as many people you won't be in a class.

18:57

You will be listening to the lectures on your own time Following through with the material you'll have the outlines and the

19:02

PowerPoint information. So that's going to be kind of a self -paced Work through the through the content.

19:08

Okay, so that I mean it could be a if a billion people sign up, right? Then you know as a billion students, right?

19:15

If 20 people sign up, it's 20 students So 30 people sign up that's 30 students because it's self -contained you get the the content and there you can work at your own pace for the premium package only 20 people can sign up only because as you know, and this is in line with good theological thinking

19:32

I Eli Ayala am NOT omnipresent, right? I'm not everywhere at once I'm just one person and so 20 people who will actually have access to that zoom class once a week with me

19:45

I think 20 is a good Amount so that I could manage the people and interact with everyone in an even -handed way as opposed to having such a large group where Some people might not be able to have their questions answered, you know, you know how discussions go

20:01

Sometimes we'll get on a topic and it'll occupy a large portion of the time. I want to have The right amount of students that they'll have the opportunity to ask their questions and and interact a little bit

20:13

Okay, so for now It's 20. I was speaking over with my with my my wife.

20:20

Maybe we'll we'll broaden the premium We'll see. I'm not sure how quickly it'll fill up if people are saying hey, you know,

20:26

I really want to do the premium package Um, we'll consider opening it up for a couple of more

20:32

People who want to sign up, but we'll see but I hope that answers the question here. All right.

20:37

Let's see here do do do do do Okay, here we go that's a good question here, let's see

20:45

Okay Hunter Hobgood asks will your class members contribute to your book in any way behind -the -scenes sneak peeks unpaid proofreading labor, etc

20:55

Well, I do have a couple of sections of my book already written So, you know what that that actually might be that might be something

21:04

I might think about Definitely if not in this first course maybe in the future but maybe and and you may

21:13

Indirectly contribute because if we have fruitful and you say you sign up for the premium package, right?

21:18

And we're in our zoom meetings if you bring up some really great questions and great points that might actually inspire me to add

21:24

Something that's discussed in the class to the book. Okay, and so Yeah in a way you could

21:32

Contribute to the book in some way. I hope that makes sense. All right, let's see here

21:39

Okay, let's go Start okay.

21:44

So Steven asks what level will this start at? Well, I'm not sure what you mean by level

21:51

Do you mean like from maybe Steven could could type in and clarify? Do you mean is it for like beginners versus more advanced?

22:01

If that's what you're asking, the answer is so you have beginner and you have advanced

22:07

I'm I'm looking to shoot somewhere in the middle. Okay, so we're not going to be saying hey, you know, welcome to Introduction to biblical apologetics and then just kind of go very shallow through the issue

22:20

No, like I said before we are gonna be getting into issues of metaphysics Epistemology ethics how to build world views how to deconstruct world views okay, so folks will be learning a lot of terminology and then they're gonna and then we're gonna talk about how to contextualize those

22:38

Philosophical theological and biblical concepts that we discuss how to contextualize that given our specific situation, you know

22:46

How do I take? discussions of worldviews Epistemology and metaphysics take that to the street.

22:52

How do I talk about those things without using those words? Right, so so when

22:57

I'm thinking like epistemology one's theory of knowledge, right? One's theory of knowledge so when we talk about epistemology we're dealing with questions of how do we know what we know?

23:06

How is knowledge gained is knowledge gained through sense experience as knowledge gained through intuition is knowledge gained through You know

23:14

Revelation, right? We're gonna be talking about the ins and outs of a philosophical system of thought Okay, so on the one hand it is introductory but it is not introductory in the sense that well

23:25

This is kind of just like well, this is whatever, you know, this will be challenging. Okay, and and so those who sign up for the premium

23:34

They'll be able to ask some of those deeper questions as well where we'll go even deeper So even our our live discussion might actually go deeper than the content in the lecture

23:44

So that depends on how interactive folks are going to be. Okay Because it's different depending on you know, if you're if you're if you're signing up for the course

23:53

That means you're interested in this stuff. You're willing to pay money to sit in the five -week, you know Class to talk about these issues

24:00

So I would imagine those who sign up will not just sit there looking at me in the screen while I'm talking

24:05

Right if that's if that's the case Would you? You know, why don't you just watch the

24:13

YouTube channel if you just want to sit sit there and watch someone talk But if you're going to be joining in the the live the the zoom discussions

24:19

I'm hopefully I'm looking forward to some in -depth interaction questions and discussions And so that definitely will add that extra depth if you don't feel like you're getting it in the course itself

24:29

Okay, so I hope that makes sense now someone is saying Not sure if you tackled my first question, but how long will the individual classes last?

24:39

Oh good. That's a good question Okay, let me see here. Okay So, um the the course themselves so like say you're sitting in a course the first course

24:48

I'm shooting for an hour or A little more so an hour to an hour and 15, so it'll be in -depth

24:54

There's gonna be a lot of information that's going to be covered But again, you're able to watch the videos at your own pace

25:01

The notes will will be given to you as well so that you're not looking at the screen and then Going down and writing down and you have the

25:08

PowerPoints available So you can look through the PowerPoints as well and that I think will be a good compliment to the information that you're learning you could pay attention and then go back to those other resources and kind of have it laid out for You and reflect upon it some more and and even add your own thoughts to to the things that are laid out there

25:24

Okay. So again, I hope that answers the question. All right, I think an hour hour and 15 minutes is a solid

25:32

Amount of time to get some good content there All right. We have Kyperion Kyperion Berean Says revealed apologetics

25:40

Would you consider changing the book name from the precept answer book to the Vantillian answer book for the reason of the criticism that K?

25:47

Olyphant has with the label. Um No, you know,

25:53

I agree with dr. Olyphant that Covenantal apologetics is probably a better name for the methodology because what what dr.

26:03

Olyphant does in kind of trying to emphasize that Nomenclature that name covenantal apologetics.

26:10

He tries to place the methodology where it belongs namely within the context of Scripture and the context of covenant and those who are covenant keepers and covenant breakers

26:20

It kind of puts all these things in its proper biblical categories. However with regards to the name

26:27

Presuppositional apologetics has been out there so long that it's probably not going to be the case that Covenantal apologetics will overtake the title of presuppositional apologetics for me

26:38

I don't mind calling it presuppositional apologetics as long as you define what a presupposition is.

26:44

Dr Olyphant is spot -on when he says that the term Presuppositional is ambiguous, but I mean if you are defining your terms and say hey,

26:52

I'm a presuppositionalist and by presuppositionalist Here's what I mean, and they could just lay out what Vantill, you know

26:57

Defined as a presupposition and make it you know, make the proper distinctions and things like that Yeah, so Scott Terry says here

27:05

Everyone out there already has an idea of what presupp is and that that's true. And so the name For better or for worse is probably going is going to stick.

27:15

Okay, so Yeah. All right. So with that said I'm gonna kind of scroll make sure

27:22

I didn't miss anything Okay, any more questions? You guys can still send them in. Let me see the offer discounts at any time.

27:29

Here we go Here's a coat glass Dean glass Dean's asked Will you offer any discounts at any time for those who can't afford the normal package and or premium package?

27:40

At some point we will I mean, we're just launching So I I want to see how things go first time around and perhaps that'll be something that we'll think about in the future

27:51

Yeah, we'll probably have to think about that a little bit Because yeah fine.

27:57

Hey, hey, hey, you know that that stimulus package is coming, right? It might be a good good way to put that stimulus package to good use

28:05

I'm just kidding. But seriously, you totally could use I'm totally joking. All right

28:13

Messing around but that definitely that's something that we can think about in the future there

28:19

Let's see here Catherine says yes for the new year. I want to learn more about the

28:24

Bible. Yes, very good Yeah, and here's the thing with with presuppositional apologetics

28:30

What I what I like to think in terms of here take a look at the name of my website. Okay revealed apologetics

28:36

Revealed apologetics is just another word another phrase to capture what I believe about apologetics

28:42

Namely that is a biblical discipline, right? So so When we learn about the

28:48

Bible when we take the biblical worldview apologetics is simply an application of biblical truth to the specific area of Unbelief and I think that's very very important Okay, you don't have to take an apologetics course to learn more about the

29:04

Bible, but definitely Learning about apologetics allows you to draw upon that that entire system of Christian thought that's grounded in Scripture and Apply it in various ways.

29:16

So Taking a course like this might be helpful and inspire you to be more

29:22

Familiar with the Christian system as it's revealed in Scripture, but absolutely Yes If you don't take the course or whatever you plan on doing for the for the new year

29:30

Reading your Bible is definitely something that you want to make sure you are on top of it. This is it

29:35

This is what it's all about right here. Okay, I'll give it away. What Bible do I use everyone ask me? Yes, I use the

29:41

MacArthur study Bible I have a bunch of other Bibles to you see what other Bible I have I have this

29:46

I Have this ginormous Monstrosity. This is a giant leather bound and leather strapped

29:54

ESV study Bible Which is which is pretty good um So yeah You definitely want to I mean how bad of an apologist would

30:02

I be if I encourage you to read? Apologetics and do apologetics without reading your Bible, right? You guys have heard me say this before We want to be very careful that we are not guilty of the of reading books about apologetics

30:14

Okay more than the Bible itself. Okay, so We want to be very careful with that.

30:21

So, thank you Catherine. That's right So if you want to learn about the Bible, that's something we all should Strive to do in this upcoming year.

30:27

Okay. All right. Someone is asking do I know? When my book will be published answer.

30:34

No, it's gonna depend on how quickly things move Then I want to get it proofread And there's gonna have to be some editing and things.

30:41

So I'm not sure remember I've never written a book before so I don't know exactly how long this whole process takes

30:47

But I I have three kids. I'm married I'm a youth director. I'm a teacher

30:52

So it's an issue of finding the time to make sure that I can dedicate and move at a steady pace

30:58

So as I get closer to the end of the process, I definitely will keep people You know update it, all right, so good question.

31:07

All right, let's see here Let's do do do do do do do All right.

31:18

Let's see here. Okay. All right Let's see

31:24

Graham Graham Dougas asks you have to or maybe he's saying you have to define what covenantal apologetics means as well

31:30

Either way you're going to spend the same amount of time defining your methodology

31:36

Okay, yeah, they definitely want to define our terms that that's gonna be a given in interactions and apologetics theology

31:44

Always want to define our terms. So thank you for that. All right, Melissa is asking when you do the zoom classes

31:49

Will you also be on YouTube at the same time streaming live for those who cannot do? the premium package well, well be the

31:59

The zoom classes are for the premium is for those who sign up for the premium

32:04

So those zoom classes will not be available for those who have the basic package So if they want to if the people are doing the basic package want access to those zoom videos

32:12

Then they're going to have to Sign up for the premium package.

32:18

I will be trying to record the zoom Videos so that that can late be accessible later on.

32:24

Maybe I'll release them at a later time But as they're signing up for the course those zoom classes will be

32:31

For those who are in the taking the premium package, okay, because those are actually live in interactions

32:37

I'll be there instructing you guys and talking with you guys So that'll be the extra feature that is not available in the basic.

32:45

Okay, and again You know, it adds that more in -depth touch to just listening to the courses

32:52

But again, you can learn a lot just by taking me do the basic course I mean the lectures are gonna be the same for the people in the premium course

32:59

You can get the same content but the premium gives you that more in -depth kind of Personal interaction where we can talk a little bit deeper about the stuff that is covered in the courses.

33:08

Okay. All right Let's see Scott says anyone taking the class will be called

33:18

Ayala's ballas Okay All right. All right. That's right.

33:23

Okay, that's an interesting little nickname there, but all right Well that that is my big announcement.

33:30

I mean, I'm I'm excited again, this is my first time doing this definitely not my first time teaching classes and things like that, but Never had a website never

33:39

Did this whole online thing? So I'm super excited I hope folks are excited as well excited enough to sign up by signing up Not only are you getting good quality instruction in the defense of the faith, but you're also helping out

33:52

34:13

Here's another question here a good question Let's see here for what a okay.

34:18

So Oh Karaoke and vlog with max asks for what age would this be for?

34:26

There's no set age Again, I am a teacher. I teach I've taught middle school high school

34:33

Bible and apologetics. So the way that I teach I always try to speak

34:40

With content but in a way that even a high school student can understand.

34:45

So if you're in high school And you want to learn apologetics, this will still be sufficiently

34:53

Applicable to a high school student. I mean, let's say for example the three foundations of every worldview as I mentioned before metaphysics of metaphysics epistemology and ethics

35:05

Yeah, I teach that to my high school students. I've taught that to my high school students I've spoken at churches where I use this information listen

35:14

Apologetics is a command in Scripture for believers whether you are young whether you a

35:21

Ten -year -old can do apologetics again again I might not use the same terminology for a ten -year -old but they're able to do it kids are able to get a grasp on the

35:31

Basics of the Christian faith and be able to give reasons why they believe it to be true again

35:36

It's a different level of sophistication as you grow in your knowledge and understanding and things like that But yeah, this this would be available to you know, middle school high school students if they're if they're interested definitely

35:50

Okay, so Let's see here. So my my wife is my okay There we go The payment portion of signing up for the class is not completely set yet check back in a bit so we can finish

36:02

Setting it up. All right. Well, that's good to know. All right, so but if you if you're Yeah, so check back a little bit later for that But definitely

36:10

I encourage you guys and looking forward to having folks sign up and even more So being able to interact with some of you in the the zoom classes.

36:18

So so that's my big announcement I I hope that I Hope this all works works out and it it it it scratches where people are itching

36:30

This is something that I've been asked by multiple people, you know When are you gonna do something like an online course or something like that?

36:36

And so I'm super excited about this. Hopefully it will be beneficial to those who Who make use of it?

36:43
