A solid foundation for Christian apologetics | David Libby

Meet David Libby, a seasoned logger from rural Maine, and his wife Lisa, a dedicated homeschooling and homesteading mother.

 

Together, they raised their two daughters, Kayla and Bethany, while embracing a self-sufficient lifestyle—hunting, fishing, foraging for wild edible plants, camping in remote areas, gardening, raising livestock, and preserving their own food.

 

However, this rugged lifestyle came with an unexpected challenge: the entire family was bitten by numerous ticks, leading to a devastating struggle with Lyme Disease and its many complications.

 

While David had years of experience serving in the church, first as a deacon and later as an elder, and had immersed himself in the study of theology and philosophy, the onset of his family’s health crisis revealed a difficult truth.

 

Despite his deep theological knowledge, he found a profound disconnect between theoretical understanding and real-life application in the face of hardship.

 

This realization became the catalyst for his book, born from the tough, often painful realities of navigating both faith and illness in life’s most challenging moments.

 

In this podcast, David shares his remarkable journey of faith, resilience, and growth, offering insights on how life's greatest challenges can reshape our understanding of knowledge, belief, and personal strength.

 

His story will inspire you to find strength and meaning in the midst of adversity.
