Our mission targets three primary efforts: educating the church, engaging the culture, and equipping and emboldening students. By targeting these three areas, we believe we can bolster the witness of Jesus Christ in the public square and help believers hold their faith regardless of the cultural changes. ENGAGING THE CULTURE by reaching the lost - This includes apologetics evangelism and outreach, such as radio appearances, social media engagement, audio/video development, and web and mobile presentation of questions and answers the general public has toward the faith. 15790 EQUIPPING THE CHURCH - This includes developing Church-based apologetics content for both in-person and online presentation. It also includes book and article writing, curriculum creation , and speaking at various events. One major event is the Come Reason Dare to Defend Apologetics Conference that is held annually in Southern California and will be expanding to venues in additional states of the US as well as possibly internationally. 17999 EDUCATING AND EMBOLDENING STUDENTS - Come Reason has also developed an extensive strategy for reaching Christian youth both before and during their college years. Our strategy includes youth group training, Apologetics Missions Trips, on campus events, and special lectures targeted to young people. 13333 47122 Leonard Esposito President & Chief Apologist 40.00 0 30500 Christine Esposito Secretary-Treasurer 0.00 0 Dominique Aguiar Vice-President 0.00 0 Brent Ayotte Director 0.00 0 Timothy Sherwood Director 0.00 0 Ty Briggs Director 0.00 0 Tom Thomazin Director 0.00 0 false false false false false 0 false false 0 0 0 false CA Christine Esposito PO BOX 20527 Riverside CA 92516 8669573276 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE 0 NONE 0 true X 0 0 0 0 34870 25384 38986 32235 42367 173842 34870 25384 38986 32235 42367 173842 173842 173842 1.00000 1.00000 X PART IV - Line 2 Leonard Esposito and Christine Esposito.
