Understanding Christian Apologetics: Five Methods for Defending the Faith

For Christians who want to understand the different apologetic methods to help them have a defense for their own faith.

God has called Christians to be prepared to defend their hope in Christ, but what's the best method for making this defense? In this book, five apologists set out together to determine which approach to apologetics is the most faithful to Scripture and the most useful in a secular age. Understanding Apologetics presents in counterpoint form five popular approaches to the defense of the Christian faith that have developed throughout history--from the early days of Christianity through to our practices today. Apologetics philosophies explored here include:

• Cultural Apologetics
• Presuppositional Apologetics
• Evidential Apologetics
• Classical Apologetics
• Ecclesial Apologetics

Curated and edited by the host of the popular broadcast The Apologetics Podcast, Dr. Timothy Paul Jones breathes new life and passion into the ancient art of Christian apologia. Expect Understanding Apologetics to be the standard textbook in seminaries and Bible colleges for many years to come.
