Explore Apologetics through the Lives of History's Great Apologists

The History of Apologetics follows the great apologists in the history of the church to understand how they approached the task of apologetics in their own cultural and theological context. Each chapter looks at the life of a well-known apologist from history, unpacks their methodology, and details how they approached the task of defending the faith.

By better understanding how apologetics has been done, readers will be better able to grasp the contextualized nature of apologetics and apply those insights to today's context. The History of Apologetics covers forty-four apologists including:

  • Part One: Patristic Apologists
  • Part Two: Medieval Apologists
  • Part Three: Early Modern Apologists
  • Part Four: 19th C. Apologists
  • Part Five: 20th C. American Apologists
  • Part Six: 20th C. European Apologists
  • Part Seven: Contemporary Apologists
