He detailed what he has termed “the 9 Marks” of differentiation: expositional preaching, the Gospel, biblical theology, a biblical understanding of conversion, evangelism, church membership, discipline, concern for promoting discipleship and growth, and a biblical understanding of church leadership.

Young men and women entering college or taking their first steps out into the world will quickly find their faith put to the test. Contemporary influences encourage us to “live for the moment” and to “seize the day” without regard for eternal consequences. The pressure imposed by society to thrive in a competitive world can breed broken friendships, disappointments, and lure young adults away from their devotion to Christ. Teaching from selected Scripture including Psalms, Proverbs, Timothy and James, Alistair Begg speaks to college student audiences about holding firm to Christian convictions. Lessons For Life offers practical, essential teaching on ...

Christians are urged to live out the Gospel by our actions and words. So how do we communicate effectively with those who do not know Christ? Teaching on acting wisely and being opportunistic with those outside the faith, Alistair provides insight to learning to answer questions appropriately, being gracious without being cliché and on how love must cross racial and cultural boundaries.

While teaching the Bible in American public schools would cause much controversy, John Dickson, a native Australian, came to faith in Christ through a scripture class taught in school. He points out a common idiosyncrasy concerning evangelism: Christians treat sharing the gospel as an embarrassment, rather than treating evangelism as a casual conversation about our favorite subject. He talks about his approach as a pastor for helping his congregation know and share Christ and he gives some examples of how to use accounts from the four gospels in responding to unbelievers.

"Why did Christ have to die if your sincerity or decency is good enough?" Rico Tice, who became a Christian in an English boarding school, answers this question as he talks about the exclusivity of the gospel. He helps us discern between the tension of being gracious to unbelievers and still sharing the whole truth of the gospel without distortion. Tice convicts us that we ought to hold theological truth and biblical integrity tightly with one hand and hold the methodology loosely with the other. Learn more from Rico in his helpful evangelism tool that uses the gospel of Mark ...

Pastor Alistair Begg launched this year's Basics Conference, "do the work of an evangelist...", with a clear exposition of Jesus' well known encounter with Nicodemus in John 3. As Jesus steps onto the stage of human history, he wastes no time in elucidating what his purpose is: Repent and believe the good news! Whether preaching the gospel to a crowd on a mount or sharing the message of the gospel in a one-on-one encounter, Jesus always is aiming for more than just a renovation of character. Jesus preaches the good news about a new birth!

With passion and conviction, Rico Tice shares from Mark's gospel and 2 Corinthians 4 how to preach the gospel. With so many false gospels permeating the church, it is crucial now more than ever to know how to share the gospel. Rico reminds us that we preach Christ, but that it is God who opens blind eyes. As one goes through the gospel of Mark it is clear with each passing story that Jesus must be more than a teacher, carpenter, prophet, or good person--Jesus must be the Son of God!

Each person is molded and shaped by his particular environment, culture and upbringing. While each person is a citizen in their given country, John Dickson goes to Paul's letter to the Philippians to show how important it is for the believer to live as a citizen of heaven. Coining his own word, Dickson maintains that the gospel is a part of being "re-citizenized". It is because of this that Dickson notes that there's something about knowing you are minority in an opposing empire that motivates one to evangelism.
