What is Apologetics?

In 1 Peter 3:15 we are called to prepare to “give an answer” for the hope within us. The Greek word translated in this phrase is apologia, a legal defense against a false charge.

Our loving and non-confrontational approach aims to help Christians answer the questions and objections unbelievers raise against the faith.

There are different types of apologetics, contributing in different ways to the defense of the Christian faith. Our preferred take is Presuppositionalism. By listening carefully and asking good questions, we get to the heart of an unbeliever’s obstacles to accepting Christ. We can then reveal the irrationality of their worldview before presenting the truth of the Christian faith.

Are you prepared to handle questions and doubts about your faith?
