Why the Church Needs Apologetics

The word apologetics can be intimidating. Some Christians wonder if we're apologizing for what we believe and others may think apologetics is only about arguing with others. This book aims to change those false perceptions. Written in clear and concise language, the hope is that you will walk away from this text not only being able to define Christian apologetics but with a desire to share the Good News as we're mandated by Scripture to do in 1 Peter 3:15. If you're new to apologetics, you'll learn the basics of how and why we are called to defend the Christian faith, and if you're already familiar with apologetics, you will be filled with a renewed sense of urging that churches should incorporate apologetics into what they offer their congregations. This book also includes a helpful glossary and a list of resources for further reading.
