Product Description

Finding the right angle from which to approach an unbeliever can be tricky without guidance. Some people simply disbelieve God's existence, some believe in a different deity (or more than one), and some think that who they worship and who you worship are the same when it is plain to you that they are not. Unbelievers have problems with the reliability of the scriptures, the historicity of Jesus or the problem of pain and suffering. Knowing the basics of these issues and their biblical solutions can greatly enhance your introduction of evangelistic basics, tailored to each person's mindset. While apologetical arguments are not evangelistic techniques in the strictest sense of the words, the information presented here can go a long way in both your understanding of the worldview of the unbeliever and building your faith to accurately stand up to assaults of modern religions.

Publisher's Description

In today’s pluralistic society, not every approach to sharing the gospel will work with all people. Being ready to give reasons for the hope we have in Christ means understanding the contextual framework of the people we are addressing.

In the Holman QuickSource Guide to Christian Apologetics, Renaissance man Doug Powell defends the Christian faith in a new key; taking timehonored approaches in apologetics and freshly presenting them for a new generation.

Chapters include:

1. What Is Apologetics?

2. The Cosmological Argument for God’s Existence

3. The Teleological Argument for God’s Existence

4. The Axiological Argument for God’s Existence

5. Which God Exists?

6. Where Did the New Testament Come From?

7. Is the New Testament Reliable?

8. ExtraBiblical Evidence for Jesus

9. Is the Old Testament Reliable?

10. The Fulfillment of Prophecy

11. What About Miracles?

12. Was Jesus Raised from Death?

13. Did Jesus Claim to Be God? Is He the Only Way?

14. How can God allow Evil, Pain, and Suffering?

Holman QuickSource Guide to Christian Apologetics 5 5 4 4

Best overall overview of Christian apologetics This one small book has more information across the whole scope of Christian apologetics than any book I've seen. It is also written and illustrated in such a way as to be appealing and easy to read, while still doing a great job of handling some very profound subjects and thoughts. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to either gain insights into the whole subject of Christian apologetics or are wanting something they can provide non-Christians to provide them something that will, at a minimum, certainly make them at least think about their own beliefs and where they are rooted. I'm currently developing a series of lessons on Christian apologetics to be taught at our local church, and am using this book as the primary resource. September 30, 2011

Great Book! Don't let the pictures fool you. This book is full of excellent, to the point information. I know I will Re-read it several times. The arguments are quite comlpete and arm you with the beginning tools that we need to properly defend the Christian faith. September 24, 2011

Excellent book to help defend the faith I used this book as the study guide for a beginning apologetics class. The class raved about the content - I rank it among the top study sessions. Hats off to Doug for this piece of work. November 7, 2010

This was a pleasure to read, and a great overview. I read it from cover to cover, but it is organized so that it can act as a reference book later on. It's also very colorful with pictures that link to the topic being discussed. I am glad that this was my first book in the pursuit of apologetics. This Holman QuickSource series seems to be pretty solid all of the way around. August 12, 2010
