Apologetics is a multi-faceted gem. Some facets are more polished than others, some seem clearer than others, but all make up the precious stone that helps us make sense of the faith. Here are presented many of the elements involved in the defense of the faith, which the apostle Peter encourages to develop ("...be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear...").

The project has brought together dozens of experts, including highly recognizable names such as Al Mohler, David Noebel, Gary Habermas and Dillon Burroughs, to focus on apologetics as well as topics that either rely on or can inform good apologetics. Over 150 signed entries are presented for both budding apologetics and well-versed veterans to easily access, most with multiple reference sources for deeper study. Early church fathers, cults, heresies and philosophical ideas are given space to breathe alongside worldview, postmodernism, atheism and theories of truth. Extensive articles covering apologetics methods, Christ, the Bible, and God make this a thorough, comprehensive tome.

The perfect combination of scholarship and accessible presentation for Christians who desire to know how to better understand and defend their faith.

Bestselling authors Ed Hindson and Ergun Caner have brought together a who's who of apologetic experts--including Lee Strobel, Norm Geisler, Josh McDowell, and John Ankerberg--to produce a resource that's both easy to understand and comprehensive in scope.

Every entry provides a biblical perspective and mentions the key essentials that believers need to know about a wide variety of apologetic concerns, including...

• issues concerning God, Christ, and the Bible
• scientific and historical controversies
• ethical matters (genetic engineering, homosexuality, ecology, feminism)
• a Christian response to world religions and cults
• a Christian response to the major worldviews and philosophies of our day

Included with each entry are practical applications for approaching or defending the issue at hand, along with recommendations for additional reading on the subject.
