Apologetics for the Ordinary Christian

This week the blog is sponsored by P&R Publishing.

You may have a burden for the lost and a desire to learn to defend your faith but can’t see yourself becoming a philosopher or scientist to do so. I have good news. You don’t have to!

Being a good evangelist or apologist does not require you to obtain an academic degree or read obscure texts. Jesus never commanded his disciples to go to Athens to learn at the feet of philosophers in order to reach the world. While knowing a little about philosophy, science, and other fields of study may help, extensive knowledge in these areas is not necessary. Ordinary Christians can become skilled and effective evangelists. 

Whatever your background, you can learn to defend the faith, share the gospel, shake the unbelief of non-Christians, present the Christian worldview, and lead people to saving faith in Jesus Christ.

“Marvelously clear, practical, and emboldening. Excellent guidance for anyone who seeks to be more faithful and effective in gospel advance.” —Fred G. Zaspel

Being a good evangelist or apologist does not require you to obtain an academic degree or read obscure texts.

That is what this book is all about: equipping you with the confidence and skills you need to fulfill the Great Commission (Matt. 28:19–20), give an answer to those who question you (1 Peter 3:15–16), and declare the mystery of Christ (Col. 4:3–4). If you simply want to reach your unbelieving neighbors, friends, coworkers, family members, and classmates, this book is for you!

    When You Want It More Than They Do

    It can be both a joy and a trial to witness another person’s Christian life. It can be a joy when you learn that they long for holiness and that they long to strive toward what is theirs in Christ. It can be a trial when you learn that they appear to have little longing…
