Overview

What is apologetics and why does it matter? Does having evidence for Christianity eliminate the need for faith? How do I respond when someone says that God doesn't exist? How can I trust that the Bible records true events?

He will help you understand a rational case for Christian belief and how to answer objections to that case.
