Title: Christian apologetics past and present
Description: This two-volume set provides an unprecedented anthology of apologetics texts with selections from the first century AD through the Middle Ages (v. 1) and 1500 to the present (v. 2). This resource includes introductory material, timelines, maps, footnotes, and discussion questions. The apostle Peter tells us always to be ready to give a defense to anyone who asks us to account for our hope as Christians (1 Peter 3:15). While the gospel message remains the same, such arguments will look different from one age to another. In the midst of a recent revival in the field of apologetics, few things could be more useful than an acquaintance with some of these arguments for the Christian belief through the ages. The authors provide a preface to each major historical section, with a timeline and a map, then an introduction to each apologist. Each primary source text is followed by questions for reflection or discussion purposes. - Publisher.
