When is the right moment to make a reasoned defense of your faith in a conversation, and when is it better to listen? That is the question St. Mark Catholic Church puts on the table for ‘Winning Hearts, Not Arguments,’ the next session in its Everyday Apologetics series, on Wednesday, Oct. 21, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in Highlands Ranch.
The speaker is Andrew McGown, executive director of mission and evangelization for the Archdiocese of Denver. The parish describes the evening as a mix of teaching, practical equipping and inspiring spiritual dispositions, with a focus on identifying the appropriate times for apologetics, for building trust and for simply walking with others in their spiritual lives. It is filed under faith formation, which puts it in the adult teaching-night lane rather than a youth or family event. The event page lists no cost and does not mention registration; it points to give.stmarkhr.org/everyday-apologetics for the series, and questions go to Alyson Eldred at alysone@stmarkhr.org or 720-348-9700. One note: the page’s add-to-calendar links show an Eastern time zone, so confirm the 6:30 p.m. Mountain start with the parish if you are cutting it close.
