Fifth, whatever our skill at defending the faith, any humble presentation of Christian truth is a powerful tool in God's hands.
Christian humility is an arresting apologetic in and of itself.
Those who with plain speech forget themselves in service of Christ outshine those who eloquently defend only their egos.
