About Us
Defending the Biblical Roots of Christianity is a biblically-based, Christ-centered apologetic and teaching ministry. Our mission is to create God-honoring, biblically sound content that helps believers understand Scripture and address false teachings. We do this in two ways: First, by promoting biblical literacy and knowledge of Scripture through Bible studies and studying biblical theology, which looks at the Bible as a whole and tracks God’s grand story of redemption from the OT to the NT. Second, by systematically breaking down teachings that challenge the sufficiency of Christ (2 Cor. 10:5). Our goal is to clear away myths and misconceptions about Christianity and lift high the beautiful Gospel of Jesus.
This ministry was founded by Professor R. L. Solberg, who has been pursuing theology, apologetics, and philosophy formally and informally for over two decades. He studied at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and has a Master’s Degree in Theological Studies from Williamson College, where he is now an adjunct professor of theology. He also studied Biblical Hebrew through the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and is a Ph.D. student of Bible Exposition at Liberty University. Prof. Solberg strives to communicate on complex topics with clarity and grace.
