Brace wasn’t raised in a Christian home. He was agnostic about God. He left home at 17 on his way to West Point. After graduating, he became Airborne and Ranger qualified and travelled the world racking up experience and accolades as an officer in the Army. He was destined for success. Despite his appearance, however, he was desperately trying to figure out life, who he was and where he was going. Christ got him at the age of 29. As someone who wasn’t convinced of Christ until later in life he has come about his convictions differently than those raised in Christian homes. He came to Christ after experiencing the personal failures and emptiness resulting from a life ruled by the standards of this world.

Brace provides hope for parents and churches as he illustrates a clear path to success in strengthening our youth and turning them into an incredible evangelical force.
How to turn lukewarm youth into steadfast Christians. Brace explains how we can give our youth exactly what they are looking for. We can engage their skepticism head on and show them that there is no other worldview as well supported or as rational as Christianity. Authenticity is communicated to our youth when we acknowledge their questions as valid and then satisfy their intellectual curiosity with the rock-solid evidence that science and history have provided us. Apologetics is not the only answer, but the subject area is a major tool in our quest to save our youth.
