Josh McDowell never intended to be a defender of the Christian faith. In fact, the goal was just the opposite. As a skeptic in college he was challenged by a group of Christian students to intellectually examine the claims of Christianity. He accepted the challenge and set out to prove that Christ's claims to be God and the historical reliability of Scripture could neither be trusted nor accurately verified. The evidence he discovered changed the course of his life. He discovered that the Bible was the most historically reliable document of all antiquity and that Christ's claim that he was God could be objectively verified. Today Josh has shared these truths with over seven million young people in eighty-four countries, including more than seven hundred university and college campuses. He has authored or coauthored more than eighty books and workbooks with more than thirty million in print worldwide.
Josh.org is one of the most important resources available for equipping Christians to defend their faith with credibilty and effectiveness. Let us encourage you to visit the Apologetics and Ask Josh sections of the web site. You will also find many useful books in the Apologetics Resource Center. In fact, The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict and More Than A Carpenter are two books that should be in every personal library.
Gary met Josh McDowell while in college. His ministry and message gave birth to the dream and calling on Gary's life. Outreach America was patterned after the ministry of Josh. Today, Gary counts Josh McDowell as his most trusted and closest ministry mentor.

The people at Covenant Eyes, have a strong desire to make available to everyone the ability to foster self-control, self-discipline, and personal accountability when using the Internet. Job 31:1 states, "I have made a covenant with my eyes." It is their stated purpose to provide a tool enabling Internet users to maintain that covenant, regardless of whether their temptation is pornography, gambling, or simply time spent on the Internet.
