“Not to engage in the pursuit of ideas is to live like ants instead of like men.”

~ Mortimer Adler

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen, not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”

~ C.S. Lewis

“The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried.”

~ G.K. Chesterton

“If [the gospel] is dull, then what, in Heaven's name, is worthy to be called exciting? The people who hanged Christ never, to do them justice, accused him of being a bore-- on the contrary, they thought him too dynamic to be safe.”

~ Dorothy Sayers

David Vogel

David Vogel began his teaching career as a speech and debate coach for homeschooled students. A former homeschooler himself, he was a nationally-ranked speaker in Policy and Lincoln-Douglas debate and collegiate mock trials. After being hired by the North Carolina-based Cultural Commission organization, he taught public speaking, debate, critical thinking, Christian Worldview, and apologetics to students ranging from 12 to 18.

David Vogel founded Living the Answer LLC in 2007, with the goal of helping youth develop their minds for the glory of God. With classes ranging from basic logic and rhetoric for younger students to worldview and philosophy training, Living the Answer seeks to produce students who know what they believe, know why they believe it, and are prepared to humbly communicate those beliefs.

Before becoming an educator, David Vogel worked as a reporter for the Alamance News, North Carolina's largest weekly newspaper. He took time off from teaching in 2006 to coordinate a grassroots get-out-the-vote campaign in Wake County on behalf of North Carolina House candidates Russell Capps, Nelson Dollar, and Paul Stam (current NC House Minority Leader), producing voter turnout nearly double that of nearby precincts. In 2007, he was a speaker at the North Carolinians for Home Education Legislative Day in Raleigh.
