Canyonville Christian Academy had the great privilege of having Dr. Joe Davis of Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida speak to its students about ethics, philosophy, world religions, and Christianity. Dr. Davis has a PhD in Apologetics (reasoned arguments in the justification of a theory or religious doctrine) from Westminister Theological Seminary. He teaches and encourages students to use rational thought, science, and statistics to prove and support the legitimacy of their beliefs.

During his two days on campus, Dr. Davis had three sessions with Canyonville Christian Academy’s student body and two smaller sessions with its Philosophy classes and upperclassmen. Each assembly with the student body had a specific focus: ethics, world religions, or Christianity. Dr. Davis started the sessions by introducing the topic with a teaching and ended with a Q & A time with the students.
