Coaching from an Able Defense Team
If you were planning to become a defense lawyer, you would want to be coached by an experienced defense team. At the International Academy of Apologetics, Evangelism & Human Rights, we have assembled a team of scholars with a track record of defending the faith in many environments, both hostile and friendly. Come learn from them so that you, too, can put forth an able defense when called.
