'Top 10 to Attend': Reason # 2 - Meaning.

# 2 - Meaning. 

During our week together, Kyle and Hope want to leave no jargon unexplained, no catchphrase mystically hazy, and no lingo frustratingly empty. To see that the Christian faith is valuable, we have to know what we mean when we talk about it. This means we define our terms and tell you what we mean. Defining our terms will allow us to define our lives. We won't be the only ones doing all the work here, though. Past students know that we also spend several hours throughout the week finding out what each student means himself. Playing devil's advocate, we'll challenge you to explain why or what you believe. This can be a trying exercise, but it will reap a large payback of knowing where to grow and confidence in the future. As a favorite professor who made us answer hard questions in class said to us, "I'm doing to you in a friendly setting what the world wants to do to you in an unfriendly setting."
