I live my life after the truth of Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so does one man sharpen another.” Thus, I will work every day to BeTheIron that sharpens a Christian in their knowledge and love of God, or to sharpen non-Christians in their understanding of the historic Christian faith!

About

David Suarez is a Christian apologist, educator, and author with a passion for equipping Christians to understand and confidently defend the faith. He served for two years as a Bible Study Leader with Brown University’s Reformed University Fellowship (RUF), and for approximately three years as the Young Adults Leader overseeing Steel Valley Church’s Apologetics, Theology, and Bible Study groups. He has also spent four years teaching high school courses in Bible, apologetics, theology, philosophy, evangelism, and church history, and served for one year as an Academic Facilitator at Cornerstone University for courses in philosophy, aesthetics, and project writing.

David’s apologetics ministry has also extended into digital media through BeTheIron, a YouTube and Instagram ministry focused particularly on engaging atheism and Islam. Through this work, he has collaborated with prominent Christian apologists and educators, including Dr. David Wood and InspiringPhilosophy, creating resources designed to bring philosophical and theological arguments into accessible conversations with a broader audience.

Academically, David was accepted into Brown University’s Program in Liberal Medical Education (PLME) as a pre-medical student and graduated in 2021 with a B.A. in Premedical Health and Human Biology. He later earned a Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics (MACA) from Southern Evangelical Seminary in 2025. His academic and ministry interests particularly center on apologetics, philosophy, aesthetics, theology, worldview formation, and the development of accessible arguments for the truth of Christianity.

At the heart of David’s work is a passion for teaching students, teachers, and pastors why they should believe what they believe. Inspired by 1 Peter 3:15, he seeks to help Christians cultivate both the intellectual confidence to give reasons for their faith and the humility, courage, and love necessary to communicate those reasons well. He also enjoys speaking with Muslims, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Atheists about their worldviews to show the surpassing greatness of Christ and His Kingdom!
