World Religions

Dr. Don Galardi teaches this class on not only what other religions teach, but also gives us understanding on the challenges facing missionaries to present the gospel. In addition, the USA is becoming more diverse. We may be meeting people soon who have been schooled by other religions and know nothing of the Christian worldview.
