| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this project was to equip the members and attenders of Highlands Bible Church in Vernon, New Jersey to be better prepared to, as 1 Peter 3:15 says, “Always make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you yet do it with gentleness and respect.” This project was designed to be a reproduceable course to continue to equip for future generations. Chapter 1 introduces the need for deeper training in key apologetics topics and defines the scope of this study. Chapter 2 sets the biblical foundation for apologetics in the models of Jesus, Paul, and Peter. Chapter 3 provides a practical analysis of three major worldview systems—atheism, selfism, and biblical theism. Chapter 4 details the elements of the ministry project, and chapter 5 is a summary evaluation, personal, and theological reflection. | en_US |
