Welcome to Balaams Donkey © Many are under the illusion that in order to enter the house of faith it is necessary to leave ones brain in a box outside the front door. The Bible however says that Christians must always be ready to give the reason for the hope they profess. This site aims to do just that. The Look Closer course is a step by step video course which aims to explain the Christian faith. It is for skeptics and seekers who have questions and want to know more about Jesus. Its is also for believers who want to underpin their experience of Christ with knowledge.

Look Closer began life as YouTube channel apologist101, which If you want to add comments or ask questions in response to any of my videos is where to head. You will need to create your own free YouTube account first in order to participate in these discussions. If you want to know more about me please click on the whoami link above.

Other Christians also operate on YouTube and you will find those I have met and recommend if you click on YouTube saints. It goes without saying that the Look Closer course is limited in its scope as YouTube only allows 10 minutes per video. In addition, my knowledge, learning and experience is not as great as many others. I have therefore included links to other websites where you may find answers to questions I don't supply.

I hope you find these videos informative. All I ask is that you listen with an open mind and if you enter into discussion with me on my channel (which I hope you will) that you do so in a spirit of friendship.
