February 20–21, 2026 | Dallas, TX


Take a deep breath. Feel the air enter and exit your lungs.

Now, let me ask you something: before I said that, were you actively thinking about your breathing? Probably not. Yet, you've been doing it all day—at least, I hope you have.

Breathing is essential. You can’t survive without it. But most of the time, you don’t even notice it. It’s usually when you’re out of breath or choking that you suddenly realize just how important it is.

Now, think about a goldfish swimming in a fishbowl. It eats, sleeps, and moves through the water. Water shapes everything it does, yet the fish doesn’t notice it. It only realizes water exists when it’s suddenly out of it.

For a fish, a world without water is drastically different than a world with it. In the same way, a world without the Word—without Christianity—is radically different from a world shaped by it.

Whether we realize it or not, Christianity is like the water to a fish or the air we breathe. Many of the values, institutions, and advancements we take for granted—like modern science, universities, human rights, and justice—exist because of the Christian worldview. But because they’ve always been there, we don’t recognize their connection to Christianity. At this year’s Reality Apologetics Student Conference, we’re pulling back the curtain to show students how Christianity has impacted our world.
