Many thanks to the sponsors of the National Virtual Debate Championship, listed below!

The National Institute for Homeschool Debate

The National Institute for Homeschool Debate is dedicated to helping people actualize the scriptural mandate, found in 1 Peter 3:15: to always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have, but to do so with gentleness and respect. We believe that our God is a God of reason and compassion. We hope to equip His people with the critical skills needed to discern His truth, the ability to clearly articulate that truth to others, and the wisdom to know when God's timing is best served in such endeavors.

Our goal is to maximize work, leisure, spirituality, and collegiality in this institute environment.

The National Institute for Homeschool Debtate hosts the annual NIHD Speech and Debate Camp, scheduled for July of this year and hosted at Twin Peaks Christian Conference Center by Lake Arrowhead, California.

Oak Brook College of Law

Founded in 1994, Oak Brook College has adopted an approach to legal education that is different both in form and in substance from traditional law schools. This approach is not motivated by a desire to create something new simply for the sake of change; it is in response to concerns about the integrity of the legal profession and to the opportunities provided by correspondence study.

Oak Brook College desires to train individuals to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ through service as advocates of truth, counselors of reconciliation, and ministers of justice in the fields of law and government policy. In keeping with that desire, they seek to enroll students who agree to receive a legal education consistent with the College’s Statement of Faith and who share a commitment to the Statement of Mission of Oak Brook College.
