Introduction to Defending the Faith
Overview
What do you say when someone argues that God does not exist, or that science has disproved Jesus' resurrection, or that the Bible is filled with errors? How can the average Christian answer objections like these?
Noting that all Christians are called upon to defend the faith, Dr. Morey makes clear the principles and attitudes basic to that task as they are expressed in a biblical world-and-life view. Designed to cut to the heart of non-Christian thinking, this book includes a handy chart showing a Christian defense to many common intellectual challenges. It combines the views of evidentialism and presuppositionalism together into one system of apologetics. Topics include: examining a religion, the Christian world and life view, and an appendix entitled how to discern presuppositions.
