Amid the pluralism and secularism of Western culture, Christian
apologetics has experienced a renewal of interest. Apologetics at the
Cross Video Lectures, a companion to the book Apologetics at the
Cross by Joshua D. Chatraw and Mark D. Allen, provide an introduction
to the field, acquainting students and lay learners with the rich
history, biblical foundation, and ongoing relevance of apologetics.
Unique in its approach, Apologetics at the Cross Video Lectures
presents the biblical and historical foundations for apologetics,
explores various contemporary methods for approaching apologetics, and
gives practical guidance in "how to" lessons that feature many real-life
illustrations. With their respectful approach, which pays special
attention to the attitude and posture of the apologist, Chatraw and
Allen equip Christians to engage skeptics with the heart as well as the
mind.
Conversational and accessible, Apologetics at the Cross Video Lectures
provides an introduction to the field of apologetics. Viewers will be
informed and equipped for engaging a wide range of contemporary
challenges with the best in Christian thought.
