What is Apologetics and Why is it Important?
Dr Greg Pritchard explains why he sees apologetics as the Science and Art of Christian Persuasion.

It's what Simon Peter was writing about when he wrote: "Always be ready to make your defence to anyone who demands from you an account of the hope that is in you" (1 Peter 3:15, NRSV).

Explore what apologetics is, why it is Biblical and how to engage with it effectively.
