If you have ever had a vaccination or surgery, you are almost certain to have benefited from the horseshoe crab.

As kids and adults head back to school this fall, a variety of questions students ask Christians is sure to arise. Some are even likely to challenge your own faith. Why not anticipate them and prepare biblical answers?
