Weekly Apologetics Zoom Meeting Archive
The Ohio State University
Ohio State University (OSU) is one of the largest campuses in the country, with approximately 64,000 students. There are over 5,000 Jewish students on the OSU campus. In addition, Columbus State Community College (CSCC) has more than 30,000 students.
Eric serves as the director of Ratio Christi at OSU and CSCC. Ratio Christi is a nationwide apologetics ministry that seeks to encourage and strengthen the faith of students at secular institutions through intellectual investigation and thoughtful apologetics, while also sharing the message and love of the Messiah with those who have yet to receive it.
Eric believes it is important for students to be familiar with current issues related to worldview, science, philosophy, history, and other academic disciplines. Establishing apologetics chapters at universities across the country is an important step toward addressing the skepticism that often permeates many educational institutions.
Eric and his outreach team engage students weekly through whiteboard outreach on campus. They ask thought-provoking questions, share the Good News, and respond to the challenging questions students often have about the Christian faith. During weekly meetings, Eric and the student leaders equip students with practical methods for engaging their campus in meaningful conversations.
The apologetics ministry at Ohio State has also hosted lectures by scholars such as Dr. Michael Brown, Dr. Michael Licona, Dr. Frank Turek, and Dr. William Lane Craig.
