Always Ready Live: October 3, 2020

How you answer the tough questions makes all the difference in the world. What will you say when your friends ask about your faith? Do you have the confidence to defend the hope you have in Christ?

On October 3, 2020, Ligonier Ministries and RBC hosted Always Ready, an online livestream for young students. Eric Bancroft, Nathan W. Bingham, Joel Kim, Stephen Nichols, and Burk Parsons helped equip Christians aged 12–18 to share their faith and stand firm for the truth of God’s Word.

This special online event was streamed live on our blog, as well as on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. You can also watch a recording of the event below.
