I am currently working on developing course materials for a course on cultural apologetics

Encountering Pop-Culture, Engaging lives – a course on cultural apologetics intends to equip Christian young people to be conversant about the beauty, truth and goodness of Christian answers to life, and most importantly defend the Christian Hope. The interactive course is designed to help participants explore the “quest”-ion,” why-I-live-what-I-believe”.
