All who call themselves Christians would (presumably) claim not merely that Christianity is true, but that they “know” it is true. For philosophers, this is a very involved topic; the difference between believing something and knowing it. So, tonight, I’m interested in hearing from you about what you would say to someone who asked you this question. At what point in your personal history would you say you finally “knew” Christianity was true? What caused you to know it? Do you remember a time when you didn’t yet know it? What changed? And if someone asked you whether you could be mistaken about your faith, how would you answer?
