Solas New Website
Solas Centre for Public Christianity can now be found on the web at www.solas-cpc.co.uk. Keep up-to-date with all Solas training events and David Robertson's new vodcast entitled "Fleabytes." Fleabytes is a weekly short video clip that will challenge the atheistic / agnostic views of society and encourage Christians to think through reasons for faith in God. We hope that the website, vodcasts and training events would be used for God's glory in the evangelism of unbelievers and discipleship of his people.
