As for next steps, Cameron said he plans to “host a thoughtful, Scripture-centered roundtable conversation with some of my heroes, with some of the best and the brightest.” Instead of promoting debates, sound bytes, or clickbait, he’ll talk with “men who love God, who will honor his Word and disagree with one another in good faith to model for us, as students, how Christians can have dangerous conversations about topics that matter, with humility, with courage, and with love.”

Cameron billed the upcoming discussion as “no character attacks, no outrage, no shortcuts, just brothers in Christ opening the Scriptures together and showing us, as the family of faith, how to reason, how to listen, and how to learn without fear.” He told viewers, “The truth does not fear honest questions, and neither should you.”

Cameron encouraged Christians to keep learning and to be willing to be wrong, “when necessary.” He concluded:

Study the Scriptures for yourself. Learn from those who have gone before you. But let God’s Word, not the words of fallible men, be your final authority. And when you do that, your faith becomes your own. Your convictions will be battletested, tried, and true, ready to weather the storm. That kind of faith doesn’t fear honest questions. It grows stronger because of them.
