An Introduction to Christian Apologetics

In this modern world Christians need to be able to give a clear reason for their faith. Christian Apologetics is the discipline of knowing why we believe, and being able to explain that why to others.

Are you able to answer the common objections to Christianity? Are you ready to confront any nagging doubts you harbour? When witnessing can you quickly discern the world view of the person you are speaking with? Do you know how to best answer them?

The Logic Behind The Love is an introduction to Christian Apologetics. After the course you will have a broad understanding of all apologetic areas. You will know where to go for further study. And you will be a much stronger Christian. Some of the subjects we cover include: Why ideas have consequences? What is apologetics? Why do apologetics? What is truth? Does God exist? What about evolution? What about cults? What about other religions? If God exists, why evil? Are miracles possible? Can we trust the New Testament? Is Jesus God? Did Jesus rise from the dead? Is the Bible the Word of God?

Trevor Mander is available for speaking engagements of any length both within New Zealand and internationally. Contact cultwatch@cultwatch.com to register your interest.
