Dr. White and Alpha and Omega Ministries did a lot of things this year. I’d like to focus on one of the most tangible things: debates. By my count, Dr. White engaged in thirteen public, moderated debates so far this year (no more are planned, that I know of):

1. Nadir Ahmed, “Can We Trust What the New Testament Says about Jesus and the Gospel?” — March 21, 2008 — Norfolk, VA
2. Jalal Abualrub, “Does the Bible Teach Jesus is God?” April 12, 2008 — Fullerton, CA
3. Steve Gregg, “The Freedom of God in Salvation” April 3-9, 2008 — Radio
4. Dr. Michael K. Schutz, “Gay Marriage Debate” April 22, 2008 — Hayward, CA
5. Farhan Qureshi, “Did Jesus Claim to Be God?” September 21, 2008 — Bellflower, CA
6. Osama Abdullah, “Was Jesus Crucified or Substituted?” September 20, 2008 — Bellflower, CA
7. Osama Abdullah, “Can We Trust the New Testament?” September 20, 2008 — Bellflower, CA
8. Adnan Rashid, “Does Belief in the Trinity Necessitate Shirk?” November 11, 2008 — London, England
9. Abdullah al-Andalusi, “Does Belief in the Trinity Necessitate Polytheism?” November 13, 2008 — Radio

11. Shabir Ally, “Is Jesus Prophesied in the OT?” November 17, 2008 — London, England
12. Shabir Ally, “Is Muhammad Prophesied in the Bible?” November 17, 2008 — London England
13. Dr. Zulfiqar Ali Shah, “The Bible and the Qur’an: a Comparison” November 20, 2008 — Durham, NC
